Hello fgs092790,

Thank you for your post.

Do you mean a button on the Chart Trader, or the SuperDOM? Your screenshot there is of Chart Trader.

What do you mean by "control my strategy"? Enabling and disabling the strategy?

Thanks in advance; I look forward to assisting you further.

[fgs092790]

Yes, the Chart Trader.

When I say control my strategy, I mean 1 button to enable and disable the strategy and another button for when I'm in a trade and I want to go flat.

Hello fgs092790,

Thank you for your reply.

It would not be possible to enable a strategy from NinjaScript, however, it is possible to terminate the strategy or submit an order.

This example from our help guide demonstrates adding buttons to the chart trader:

Close Strategy:

This script from our help guide demonstrates adding buttons on the chart window itself to submit orders:

Hello fgs092790,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm not able to review your logic in your strategy as you have exported it as a compiled assembly, meaning the code is not accessible. I'm happy to take a look if you reexport the script. Do not check the box to export as a compiled assembly this time and I'll be able to take a look.

Thanks in advance; I look forward to assisting you further.

thanks so much for helping

Hello fgs092790,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm not seeing that you've incorporated any of the code from the example indicator in your strategy. You would want to incorporate the code for the buttons into your strategy in the same places they are in the example. Then, in OnBarUpdate, look for the bool that the button sets and if it's true, submit both a long and a short market order to close the position.

This will require some skill at manual coding with NinjaScript. If you like, you can also contact one of our professional NinjaScript Consultants or Educators who would be eager to create or modify this script at your request or assist you with your script. Please let me know if you would like a list of professional NinjaScript Consultants or Educators who would be happy to create or modify any script at your request or assist you in learning NinjaScript.
