Hi,

i'm looking for a NinjaTrader 7 Add-Ón which can help me manage my manually opened Position. I Need an auto-trail function, which Closes the Position when the current Price is crossing the auto-trail indicator value. The auto-trail indicator should be selectable.

I think it's a common functionality. Can anybody guide me in the right direction (Download, Product, Development Hints). Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Koepisch

You can manage how your custom stops and determine how the stops behave in the Stop Strategy Window.

Thanks @ch123456 for your answer. I think i haven't make my question clear enough. I want use a selectable indicator value (like Supertrend) to manage my Position (Exit only). If the Price is crossing the indicator value then the Position is closed. So i can focus my development efforts to create the "Trail Indicator" only.

If you want to use a selectable indicator value you could consider to use Ninja Trader 8. It is a standard functionality in NT8 and works very good.
