I am manually trading a strategy that enters the market through stop orders that are placed 1 tick above(buy)/below(sell) the relevant signal bar. I believe that this system can be automated for NinjaTrader, however, I am not sure if the AutoTrader can enter trades on a stop.

Is this possible, or does the AT only enter with market or limit orders?

Thanks.

Hello EMiniMon,

Yes, you can enter stop orders using an automated strategy in NinjaTrader.

Please see the link below for general information to create custom automated strategies.
