I am completely new to Ninjatrader, and am using Jigsaw tools dom to trade. I enter entries with stop losses, scale out when I am lucky, move my stop loss to BE, all mostly mechanical stuff.

Is there a way in Ninjatrader to automate this? Say I put an order in at 1833 (ES), can I automatically bracket a stop and a limit order? Can I then get NT to move the stop to BE when my first scale point is reached.

Anything like this possible?

Cheers,

Adrian

You may want to take a look at the Video Library in NT's Online Help Guide and look for 'Advanced Trade Management (ATM)'.

when you say AT you mean Transact Active trader? if so, it is very easy to program these exits and enter them automatically as soon as you enter the trade.

Let me know if this is what you meant and I will upload some screen shots.
