Where I need help is programming a strategy that will do the following:
1) Buy any stock on the imported list (which could be up to 250 stocks) at a % of the most recent daily closing price. Lets say 5% down from the close. This would be a limit order.
2) Buy a certain $ amount per trade. Lets say $10000 per trade.
3) Max open positions of 5 at any one time. This means the first stocks to hit their limits will be bought.
Selling would be manually performed after the close based on certain criteria, which I do not need to program. The manual sell order would be a market order at the open.
Also, I realize I might need an intraday data service to make this work. Will Kinetick's intraday service work ?
This should be simple to program but I am new. I used to use Prodigio RTS to run this strategy with good success. Can't see why it could not not work for Ninja.
Thanks
