ATM Strategies

02-02-2011, 03:09 AM

Hi.

I'm coming from Metatrader 4. There I am using my own EA

Is it possible to do the following:

Start a strategy on a symbol with a stop strategy. When manually buying: The strategy has to trail the stop -1 pip under the last candle and has to close when a opposite signal appears.

I am always opening the trades manually. When I'm attaching a strategy to a chart then I can't trade manually.

I don't know how to realize the setup. Thanks...

Chris

Hello,

Thanks for your note.

With an ATM Strategy its only possible to trail it a set number of ticks below the current price with manual trading. Its not possible to trail it behind a dynamic price level based on the chart unfortunley.

This is possible to do with NinjaScript.

However this would require you to automate the entries as well.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
