    EnterLongStop and EnterShortStop

    Is there any way to place stop orders above the market for a long entry and below the market for a short entry simultaneously? When using EnterLongStop and EnterShortStop it appears that only one is active.

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately you can not place these 2 orders on opposite sides of the market. AFAIK some exchanges even explicitly disallow that.

      I would be very interested in hearing an example of an exchange that does not allow a trader to place stop orders both above and below a market.

      For my part, I trade futures (TS Orders -> Ninja via ATI) and routinely have several resting stop orders on both sides of the market. I am trying to eliminate TS from the loop. Is there any way to get ninja to automate these orders without coding the long and short sides into separate strategies?

      Thanks!

        Unfortunately this is not supported by NT. You would need to run multiple strategies.

            Doesn't apply to you, but US options markets would not let you do that.

              Well, the BOX and the NYSE would, but I guess that's no help either...
