I have no coding knowledge, I dont know my C# from R to Python what?
I am looking for help in developing an NT8 strategy that will place a stop automatically after manually entering an order Market/stop/limit. The stop would need to automatically be placed x ticks above or below x bars back. The number of contracts would need to based on account size and % at risk. I would also like to be able to place targets based on ATR or RR levels and have a trail feature based on an indicator TSSuper trend for example.
I dont know if this is an extensive build or a simple one. I dont know if this is a $100 job or a $3000 job. I dont want to get raked over the coals because I am very green to coding.
Could anyone point me in the right direction. Maybe to a reputable coder that can pull this off and not rip me off
Thanks
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Typical rates for custom software development are from $35 to $100+ per hour: work involving specification like trading tends to be on the higher side while generic work on the lower. I'd say an average rate is around $62 per hour and that between $40 and $85 is more typical. Some developers might also charge a minimum fee of around $400 for any project based on 1 day of work. This does not sound like a complicated build. I estimate a fair value price for this would be between $200 and $600. However, if you have many change requests or extras then the rate could easily be a lot more. If you'd like a quote you can contact me alternatively, you might browse all the vendors in the Ninjatrader ecosystem and see if there are any existing products that might support what you need.
Thanks for getting back to me tpredictor That sounds like a fair price. I will contact you. I have looked all over the eco system and have found 1 vendor that had something close (PTG position sizer) its only for NT7 and doesnt give you the option of ATR targets or the ability to attach a specific indicator to the stop.
