Hi,

I am working on my 1st ninjascript strategy and i would like set stop loss like a value of EMA (3 bars back from their lows), but not trailing SL, just the value, when i entry.

In wizard is only trail SL or fix SL, but i want SL as a value of indicator in a moment of entry...

Could you please help me? Just a link with how to do it or something like that...

Thank you.

You can ask @Fat Tails , but I'm not sure he'll entirely understand what you mean.


You are never in the wrong place... but sometimes you are in the right place looking at things in the wrong way.

I never ever used the wizard. It is easier to write the code for the strategy. And then you don't run into problems like this one.
