Trailing stops & SIM spread
Hello, first post here, great forum and platform BTW : )
Just a couple of quick questions on NT7 automation: 1/ Does live sim forward test use bid ask, i.e spread included in results? The feed used is from a broker which does contain the bid ask. Manual SIM trading of the data does use bid ask, just want to be sure that automated SIM does the same thing. 2/ In live trading (Not SIM), does trailing stop order get placed on broker servers or is it internal to ninja? Is it dependent on broker? Apologies if these questions have been answered before, I couldn't find a definitive answer using google or search. Thanks in advance for any help.

Obsidian, welcome to our forums and thanks for the kind words.
Yes, automated forward live testing would execute on the bid/ask spread as well, so results would factor it in. To see where your orders would reside, please check into - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=5349 All the best,

I'm reasonably familiar with NT7 now, been SIM forward testing for close on a year,
and backtesting before then. I'm already sold on NT  Best platform out there imo. |
