I use 2 charts of the same instrument and do exactly what you are talking. I have 1 plain chart that I run the strategy on. Then I setup a second chart that I have the chart trader on. It allows me to see the trades placed by the strategy and also allows me to adjust the targets and stops manually.
That's a bit risky as the strategy's position won't be accurate anymore.
@odmassion: it's possible to let an indicator act as a strategy, and add additional buttons to the ChartTrader, but it's unsupported and undocumented (on Ninja 7). Depending on your NinjaScript knowledge this can be a bit tricky.
Actually I haven't had a problem with any accuracy with running my strategies this way . I have the strategy enter the trade according to my parameters. I have built-in order management in my strategy, As I move a stop or profit target the strategy knows that it has been moved and continues to manage the trade with the new settings. I have been running this strat for more than 2 years this way. I have used both chart buttons to adjust the targets and drop and drag feature of the chart trader with great success. Best of Luck
