Exit Position Only

[pplowman]

I like to place my own entry orders. Using strategy builder, I tried to create a position exit strategy. What I'm asking is, can a strategy exit a position which was not entered into by the strategy?

Hello pplowman,

Thank you for your post.

NinjaScript Strategies maintain their own internal position. However, you can develop strategies to check the account position and then place orders accordingly. This would not be possible through the Strategy Builder and would require custom programming.

This concept would require the use of OnAccountItemUpdate(): http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...itemupdate.htm

If you have any questions please let me know.
