Is it possible to enter a stop loss once an order is submitted?

[mickael28]

Hello,

I was using NT on a discretionary basis and wonder if it's possible to enter a stop loss (or profit target) once an order has been submitted?

I know you can submit an order with an ATM strategy associated but sometimes I submit an order without an strategy and then I want to add a stop loss, is it possible to modify such an order once it is in the NT charts? If it is, could we use the same method once the order is fulfilled and in the market as well?

Thank you!

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us.

Unfortunately this is not something which is possible. ATM Strategies must be applied before the entry order is submitted.

Look at the Order Management section, specifically http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...es/nt7/sub.htm. Refer to the part that talks about OCO orders.
