Can I use ATM Strategies to place orders?

[cassb]

Instead of entering just a market or limit order with a stop or trailing stop, can I use one of my ATM strategies instead when the Strategy Analyzer enters an order? How do you do this?

Thanks,
Bryan

Thank you for your post.

The ATM strategies cannot be included in your Strategy but you can use the OCO function to protect your open position.

Hi Jessica. What I am most interested about in using ATM strategies in Strategy Analyzer is having two targets and a two-step auto trail. So do I have to set this up manually in the Strategy to place this kind of order? Is there a help guide page that shows how to do this?

Thanks!

Unfortunately there are no reference samples specific to this.

I took the original post to mean "can I use atm strategies when running Strategy Analyzer"

which is exactly what I would like to do also...meaning I would like to do EntryLong and specify an atm

My cs uses AtmStrategyCreate for real-time trading...however this will not work when testing my cs in Strategy Analyzer.

So I am writing additional code to enter/manage trades such as EnterLong and SetTrailStop

I would prefer to use the same atm strategies I use in real-time trading.

Based on the posts below I assume this is not possible.

Hey... looking through the Help Guide, I found this method: AtmStrategyCreate()

You said you already use it in a strategy -- doesn't it open an order using an existing ATM strategy you've created in the SuperDOM? That's what I was asking about.
