ATM creating multiple stop orders

[P01nt37]

Hi Guys,

I have just started with NT yesterday and dont know how to change (if it is possible) some ATM settings.

My broker in Brazil, charges me by order and quantity of contracts in that order.
the problem happens when I try to buy 50 contracts of futures, with a buy limited order with ATM strategies. Once my order starts to get filled, NT also starts to open multiple stop orders with 1, 2 contracts; and not a single order with 50 contracts at the stop price target.

Is there a configuration to make NT to open a single order at target price?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Eduardo,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader Support Forum!

The Stop Loss and Profit Target will increment in quantity as the fills occur, this is reflected as multiple orders as they are not submitted at the same time, but they should all reflect the same price level.

There is no method around this with the ATM Strategies. However, if you wish to submit protective orders only when the full quantity of your entry has been filled you can look into using Automated Strategies through NinjaScript or manually placing your exits.

If you would like to take on learning NinjaScript, we have a fully documented help guide which will help you get started with Ninja Script. You will find language references to all of the methods and functions you will be using. You will also see a tutorial section which will help you create your first indicator and get you started with some of these concepts.
