I'm unable to add stop losses in my ninjatrader platform.

Even at entry, if I do a stop market or stop limit, and I'm buying, I can't place a stop below entry price for whatever reason.

Can someone please provide screenshots on how to do this... thank you

Here is a link from Ninjatrader on using the SuperDom which is a easy way to enter orders.
You can also enter orders from the chart if the Chart Trader is active on the chart.

Order entry on this video starts at about 1:30 into the video.
