    Set Profit vs Stop Loss Greed in Strategy Analyzer

    I am running a strategy backtest on 5 min bars where I enter a limit order, and a profit and stop order along with that. It looks like some bars I could be getting stopped out or profiting, depending on how ninjatrader's fill algorithm works for the backtest.

    Is there anyway to use minute fill data on a 5 minute or any longer time frame backtest strategy? In addition is it possible to change the fill algorithm from greedy(profits taken before losses) to conservative(losses taken before profits)?

    habibalex, per default the fill algorithm is set to 'Default' which means we take a conservative assumption in regards to limit order fills. To simulate better getting filled intrabar you can add a finer series in and submit your orders to it - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=6652

    Both fill algorithms offered are explained more here - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...ll%2Balgorithm
