Hi,

I'm a trader who has opened two trading accounts but never traded a dollar because my backtesting and simulated trading always failed. But after a lot of encouragement from my wife, I'm back in and found a strategy that suits my style and personality. Now I need help with execution of my strategy.

After you code this for me, I want it to be shared on this site for free.
Payment is UP FRONT PayPal $50+$50 when completed. (I'm not familiar with coding so if this isn't reasonable for what I'm asking please let me know)

Strategy One Enter A Long Position If... But Cancel Position If...
Platform: NinjaTrader7
Chart: RJay's RangeNoGap (here from Futures.io)

If (Low of Current Bar* = Close of Prior Bar) Then (Place Order Buy Stop Limit @ Low of Current Bar + Y)
But CloseOrder If the condition that "Low of Current Bar = Close of Prior Bar" isn't True
AutoStopLoss = Z

changeable variables = Y & Z
*the current bar is the range bar still developing that hasn't completed yet

The Idea: If the prior bar closed as a Green/Up Candle, then the current bar's low will equal that the prior bar close because these are NoGapRangeBars, thus the "Low of Current Bar = Close of Prior Bar" conditions. Also, if at any point the developing candle moves lower than the close of the prior bar, then that means a wick has developed on this range bar, thus... one of my conditions to not enter a trade... so cancel order is necessary. Doing this manually is very taxing but works for my entry strategy. So when I turn this on, I want these trades and cancels and stops to be entered automatically.
Y = number of ticks I want to set during that trading session
Z = stop loss auto entry that is entered when positions are filled

Strategy Two** Enter A Short Position If... But Cancel Position If...
Platform: NinjaTrader7
Chart: RJay's RangeNoGap (here from Futures.io)

If (High of Current Bar = Close of Prior Bar) Then (Place Order Buy Stop Limit @ High of Current Bar - Y)
But CloseOrder If the condition that "High of Current Bar = Close of Prior Bar" isn't True
StopLoss = Z

**This is the same strategy as the first but just for shorting

Thanks All, Learned this strategy from the current cast of Futures.io members.

Got a professional firm to quote project at $499 to get this done so upping payment to $50 upfront and 200 when completed.

This works similar to a trailing stop, but is really a trailing order. I'll get pictures of it up when my internet is setup.
