script and atm

[tonynt]

Hello,

my NT-scripts work well and also I can call an ATM (from charttrader) within a NT-script.

But when I want to combine both in a NT-script-strategey eg entry 2.000 long with NT-script and eg 1.000 from my ATM (of course same ATM that works "alone") then I notice that only the 2.000 script entries are done but not the 1.000 from ATM.

What can be the reason for please? Is there to change for COBC= false and working with FirstTickofBar maybe instead or what else could hindering the ATM entry?

Thanks
Tony

Hello Tony,

Do you mean that the strategy orders are being entered, but not the ATM Strategy?

Are you calling both methods under the same conditions?

Do you have any clues from the TraceOrders output? (http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=3627)

Hello Matthew,

thanks for your reply. Yes the script-strategy orders are entered, but not the order from the ATM. The conditions are the same (the reason why I´m doing this is because I want to be able to move one positions stop-loss)

And additional information is that it works well when I do an immediate entry in another strategy with

if(orderId.Length == 0 && atmStrategyId.Length == 0
&& GetCurrentAsk() > GetCurrentBid())

Both entries are done (script and atm) but what I notice is that ATM-entry always is later (I think it is next tick).

But when I substitute(of course both script entries and ATM) && GetCurrentAsk() > GetCurrentBid()) by

&& CrossAbove(Stochastics(BarsArray[5],7,14,3).K, Stochastics(BarsArray[5],7,14,3).D, 3) && Close[1] < Open[1] && Close[0] > Open[0])

then only the script entries are done but not the ATM.

Thanks
Tony

Tony,

Do you see these results in real-time, or are you backtesting?

Please keep in mind that ATM Strategy methods will not be called when backtesting on historical data.

Matthew,

thank you. I know that the ATM does not work in backtesting. I do on real-time-demo-account . (but this would have been the solution in backtesting of course)


Thanks
Tony
