NinjaTrader 8 un-managed approach open source strategy framework

[MicroTrends]

NinjaTrader is easy to use to build awesome Trading Strategies - also known as automated trading systems or algorithmic trading systems- generally suitable for day traders or swing trading sunday to friday close.

This is where a beginner needs to start and can even use the "Strategy Builder" and use no code at all.

The default mode for NinjaTrader strategies offer very easy ways for a beginner to get started with the "managed approach"

For those programmers looking for even more control and flexibility the "UnManaged approach" is reserved for very experienced advanced programmers.

Unmanaged Approach

To make it easier for all we are building an Open Source NinjaScript strategy unmanaged framework to make life easy for all developers wanting to use that mode. Aimed at developers from an intermediate experience upwards to use - but maybe even some beginners could also use it as there are some very basic sample strategies that can be edited and used as a template etc.

Also suitable for any commercial development use and any vendors looking for a higher degree of trading system.
No need to re-invent the wheel save time and use a framework....

In our experience as Professional Algorithmic Traders and NinjaTrader Consultants, maybe less than 10% of the developers, vendors and traders we have worked with in the retail sphere, really understand how to do this. Now we bring you that experience for free open source to the NT Community.

I just saw you added a WPF addition, I will take a look to that soon.
I am building a very well functioning algorithm based on the open source code, & continue to run into issues when trying to set a break even. Where stop order continually updates on each tick the new break even order placement. What is best practice to re submit the original stop order as a new set of either OCO or non-OCO stop order.
Is there a workflow or place to resubmit, can it be done the same as the original but re met one condition, if so these new orders how are they differentiated the original orders.

Update an order works fine for most exchange order rules
- some more esoteric non mainstream require a replace instead of update -
e.g you would get a rejection on an update -

so you would not test and not call update to the order if the order price is past or at the breakeven trail in price
