Hello cw30000,

One of the great features of NinjaTrader is its ability to submit two entry orders, one which will cancel if the other is filled.
You can accomplish a breakout/breakdown approach by:
  • Right click in the SuperDOM and select the menu "OCO Order" to enable this function
  • For your first order, select the desired option from the "ATM Strategy" drop down list
  • Submit your stop order to buy above the market
  • For your second order, select the desired option from the "ATM Strategy" drop down list
  • Submit your stop order to sell below the market
  • CRITICAL Right click in the SuperDOM and select the menu "OCO Order" to disable this function
For a market fade approach just subsitute limit orders for stop orders. This entry technique is demonstrated in our free ATM Level I training class that we hold several times per week.
