Any way to enter trade on touch?

[CoffeeOutlaw]

is there a way to have ninja enter or exit a trader mid bar? like when a bar touches a moving average or at a set price or marker? all i can do so far is have it trigger on the next bar?

Is that not medianbar?

i will look into that i was just thinking that meant the middle but would still be on the next bar,

hmm thanks Emma1 but it seems that just calculates the middle of the bar according to another thread i searched up.

Hello CoffeeOutlaw,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

To have an order placed intrabar you would need to be using the strategy setting of Calculate.OnPriceChange or Calculate.OnEachTick. The default setting is Calculate.OnBarClose which waits until the end of the bar to execute your strategy code and any order submitted could not be filled until the next bar. Please note that historical orders would be processed as if the setting were Calculate.OnBarClose.
