Hello SteveReiza,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, to accomplish this you would need to use Atm Strategy Methods, such as AtmStrategyCreate(), in your script to submit an entry order that uses an ATM Strategy template to control stop loss and profit target orders.

Note that Atm Strategy Methods can only be used in an unlocked script. They are not accessible in a Strategy Builder strategy.

See the SampleAtmStrategy script that comes default with NinjaTrader for an example of using ATM Strategy templates in a custom NinjaScript strategy. To view the script, open a New > NinjaScript Editor window, open the Strategies folder, and double-click on the SampleAtmStrategy file.

See this help guide page for more information about Atm Strategy Methods and sample code: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...gy_methods.htm
