I meant that you have to use the paid version of ninja to use them, since the free live account won't work with them but then eman yelled at me and called me stupid.
First I used the free demo licence and set-up my charts and strategies using a sim account.
Then I changed the licence to my broker's one (which does not come with ATM and strategy running features) and opened a SuperDom to trade using my real account or sim account.
NJ cannot detect I was using 2 licences on one computer at the same time. I did it a few times early this year and seemed no conflict. Have stayed with the free demo licence after stopping trading real in early Feb.
Dave, I have tried using the base code you posted, and the alterations here, and the BE & TS
never seem to kick in. Do either of you have code that seems to work with all PT BE TS working on both the initial entry and also on the 'runner'?
If either of you do, I would really appreciate just that part of the code. Honestly, I hired on a programmer to accomplish that and no success (so far), which is obviously a disappointmnent.
I'm at the office today and don't have NT here, so there's only so much I can do for now. Still, it will be hard to know what's wrong without seeing your entire strat. Can you either post or PM me whatever you can that isn't proprietary? I'm really not an advanced programmer but I'll see if there's anything I can do. Also, what does PT stand for? See? <---Not advanced
PT stands for Profit Target I believe. Guess Jon will correct me if I'm wrong.
Hi Jon
Dave has been very helpful when I tried to resolve the BE/Trail myth. You're definitely in good hands. I posted a sample NJ strategy which I used and its BE/trail code worked for me. I will try to dig out the post shortly.
I can understand the frustration as I was in the same boat for weeks. I used the enclosed NJ sample strategy (which is a little simpler while Dave's one is too advanced for me) and it worked. Cory suggested a link in the following thread (Post #10 on page 1) and you may want to check it out as well:
I have an idea regarding trading the YM. I am having a difficult time with the
coding of the stops. I think I know how to take the stop loss stop and turn
it into a breakeven stop. Unfortunately I don't know how to move the breakeven
up with …
Haha that makes sense. Oh man. I need sleep. Jon, let me know how you make out with Beth's suggestion. Beth, does this mean you're 100% up and running? Haven't heard from you for awhile.
