Long-term trading

[pandaclub888]

Hello,

I was looking to get some help understanding how to make a long-term trade
e.g. to be in position for a few days/ weeks with an active stop loss and profit target.

Would you be able to advise the best practice/setup to do this?
e.g. would I need to keep my computer and network up 24/7 and what settings would I need to activate

Thank you

Hi, thanks for posting. You will need to run your computer and NinjaTrader running the strategy for the entire trade. Also, see the disconnection event settings so you can set up a longer time for the strategy to wait should a disconnect occur:
