Key Highlights

NinjaTrader’s Advanced Trade Management (ATM) capabilities give the discretionary trader a dramatic trading advantage by allowing them to implement rules and conditions for comprehensive semi-automated trade management utilizing pre-defined strategy templates. These user defined strategy templates are what allow NinjaTrader to think like you but act much faster. They also remove emotion from your trading, which promotes discipline and consistency. The net result is less stress and more profitable trades!

There is no limit to the number of ATM strategies you can deploy simultaneously. Trade the same market with multiple strategies if you wish, or even execute a long and short strategy in the same market!

Automated Stop Loss and Profit Target Order Submission

Define how you will exit your trade by creating a strategy template for the automatic submission of stop loss and profit target orders. Your pre-defined strategy will execute and start submitting your exit orders once your entry order is partially filled.

OCO (Once Cancels Other) Orders with Relational Intelligence

A strategy will not only submit your stop loss and profit target brackets it will manage the relationship between them. If a profit target order is filled, the paired stop loss will automatically cancel. Scale in or out of a strategy and all stop loss and profit target orders are updated to reflect the changed strategy position size. Increase the order size of your second profit target and your first profit target order size is automatically decreased.

Automatic Breakeven Stop Loss

Auto breakeven allows you to set a profit condition that will trigger NinjaTrader to automatically adjust your stop loss order to a breakeven price. Optionally, you can also assign an offset value that will subtract or add to your breakeven price with the latter used to cover commission costs for a true break-even.

Automatic Trailing Stops

Industry standard trail stops either stop you out too quickly or, give back too much profit. NinjaTrader’s Auto Trail system was designed to give you the power and flexibility to intelligently trail your profits. Since no two markets trade alike, you can set up custom auto trail strategies that take into account the ‘wiggle’ factor of different markets thus avoiding pre-mature stop outs. Create auto trail strategies that are liberal at the early stages of your trade and automatically tighten up as the trade goes into your favor.

Volume Based Simulated Stop Loss Orders

Ever have your stop loss order trigger by a single tick only to watch the market immediately bounce and trade to your profit target without you? With volume based simulated stops, a NinjaTrader first feature, the triggering of your stop loss order will be delayed until such time that support or resistance is breached based on your user defined volume condition.

FIFO (First in first out) Preservation

Limit orders are filled according a principle called FIFO. This means orders ahead of you in the queue get filled first. Whenever possible, NinjaTrader will preserve your limit orders position in the queue. Increase the size of an order, NinjaTrader will simply submit an additional order for the difference in size which results in two orders. NinjaTrader’s order entry displays provide you with a consolidated view of all orders resting at the same price. When reducing the size of an order, NinjaTrader will amend or cancel the newest orders first. This may sound straightforward and obvious but it’s not, and only NinjaTrader gives you this trading edge.
