Account Flatten Indicator

Hi,
Does anyone know of an indicator that will the flatten the account when a specific profit or loss target is reached? I have one that flattens the chart, but looking for one that flattens the entire account.

A stop order? I am not sure what you mean by "I have one that flattens the chart but not the entire account."

This is what I was thinking......or a Limit?

There is a risk of loss in futures trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

I recall looking at reading account value from an indicator (vs strategy) in NT 7 over a year ago.

Maybe a better way but accessing account data from an indicator is not straightforward however Gomi did some work using a SQL database patch (I have it installed, it works to display the values nicely on a live account).

NT : framework to access trades history in indicators, using NT database

Hi guys, time for a YAGOF (Yet another Gom framework ;-) )

I had a problem not being able to access Trades and Trade history from Indicators.
In Ninja's mind, Indicators do the drawing , Strategies run the trades, but what if you want to draw stuff …

Follow the entire thread. If nothing more obvious available, could be a step to what you want (if not a completely inelegant answer).
