Automatic stop-loss and profit target in sterling pro

[black_trader]

Is it possible to have sterling pro automatically place a stop and profit target immediately an order is placed. If not, how can this be achieved without any extensive programming?

I'm familiar with Ninjatrader and i can simply do this with the in-built ATM strategy .

You can place two orders, then tag them as OCO. When one executes, the other will cancel.

Thanks... I guess there is no way to do that automatically? I just need a system to place a stop and profit target immediately i get into a trade.

We can do that with ReaLTick. What broker do you use?

I'm with a prop firm that only uses sterling platform.

Then you will need to enter three orders or move you business.

You can use Sterling Trader API for auto order placement. I can code that for you if inrerested

Does Sterling Trader Pro still not have the built-in capability to do this auto order placement in the Original post?

STP does not offer Bracket orders. We offer Eze EMS (formerly RealTick), which has a full suite of conditional orders. https://www.lightspeed.com/webinar/...e-eze-ems-formally-realtick-trading-platform/
