Hello wokitun,

Thanks for your note.

Unfortunately, something like this would not be possible unless you recreate the Chart Trader functionality with a Strategy NinjaScript.

An indicator will not be able to query orders so this cannot be used, even with using NinjaTrader.Strategy.

A strategy applied to the same chart would be able to return this information, however, it is not possible to run a strategy on a chart that has Chart Trader enabled.

Because of these issues, it would only be possible to find this information if you create buttons that place orders similar to Chart Trader. With that you would be able to manually place an order and return information about it.

Attached is a sample strategy that I have made previously that shows how to add buttons to a toolbar and have those buttons make actions.

If you would like assistance creating this strategy I recommend you contact one of our expert NinjaScript consultants.

Hi ChelseaB!

Thx for your quick reply

I checked it out...

Now i see the difference...
I'd like to add manually sell limit / buy limit with right mouse button...., but i can't... if i use a strategy.
And I'd like to move manually stoploss/like in charttrader/ as well...nothing automatic trading....
I just get some info about open trade...I didn't know that...sorry.

I wrote an Indicator which is draw some lines on chart...
I thought if I open an order I can get these informations easily...
What do you suggest?

I'm a bit disapointed... In mql4 was so easy to do this...
So is there any other way?

thank
w.

Hello,

Unfortunately, the only solution I can think of would be to use a strategy that allows you to manually place orders.

Below is a link to a strategy from Indicator Warehouse that does this.
