I have a questions regarding the SuperDOM and Chart Trader and using them please


1. With the Auto Close feature, can I set it up to where I can have any Open positions be closed, based on each Markets ( Intra-Day margin Time-Frame )

For Example:
Can I setup the Auto Close feature to close out any Open positions on the -MES by 3:45 p.m. cst
GF ( Feeder Cattle ) by 12:50 p.m. cst
ZL ( Soybean Meal ) by 1:05 p.m. cst

Also,
can I turn On/Off the Auto-Close feature on certain Markets at anytime, in the case that I want to hold a position Overnight, instead of close it out within the Intra-Day Margin trading Hours



2. Regarding the Chart Trader, Before I enter a Trade - is there a way that I can move the Chart Trader "Feature" up and down on the Chart to see in real Dollar amounts, what my Risk will be on the trade if I were to place a Stop at "X" ?

I am wanting to see ( before I Enter a trade ) if it makes sense based on support/resistance levels that I use to make trading decisions on - see if based on my Risk per trade ( in real dollar terms ), if I enter the trade, will placing a stop upon entering the trade, if my Stop will be at a level/price far enough away from my entry - if this makes sense?



Thanks so much for the help

Just hit F1 when you have in focus the NinjaTrader window you want to learn more about. The related Help File will open and answer all your questions.

I use it all the time ...still..... and it has been 10 years...from NT6 - NT8.

No fish here....just fishing lessons.

And this will bring the cavalry @NinjaTrader
