On a live account with NT, if a stop is placed in a strategy, NT brokerage..

[birdog]

Hi,

On a live account with NT, if a stop or take profit is placed in a strategy, it is live on the NT brokerage correct (unless we are using a simulated stop in the strategy)?

Also, what about any other working orders we place on the NT platform too (all those are server side held with NT brokerage)?

I want to be sure and am just planning for if our NT platform losing connection with the internet, crashes, etc.

Thanks.

Hello Greg,

Thank you for your note.

We have a page in the help guide that describes where your orders reside based on brokerage and the order state:
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...rs_reside_.htm

There are order state definitions as well:
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...efinitions.htm

With the NinjaTrader Brokerage, orders that are in a state of "Accepted" or "Working" are at the brokerage/exchange and not local on your PC.

The following post goes into detail about what can happen to different order types, such as an entry order that should have an ATM strategy, in the event of a connection loss:

Additionally, if you plan to trade with NinjaScript strategies, you may adjust your connection loss preferences at Control Center > Tools > Options > Strategies > NinjaScript > On connection loss as described here:
