Automated Trend Strategy for NinjaTrader8
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I am looking for a NinjaTrader 8 programmer who can turn my proprietary trend-following idea into a fully automated futures strategy. The core of the job is to write a template that watches price action in real time, generates my custom entry signal (it is not a simple price or moving-average crossover, so it will be shared after NDA), and then routes the resulting long or short orders automatically through NinjaTrader’s order management.
Beyond the entry logic, I need standard components such as user-defined position sizing, protective stops, and profit targets coded cleanly in C#. The code must compile without warnings inside NinjaTrader 8, expose editable parameters in the Strategy window, and be delivered in both .cs and compiled .dll form.
Acceptance criteria
• Strategy attaches to any futures instrument and immediately plots the signals on chart and executes live or in simulation without errors.
• All inputs (risk per trade, stop distance, profit target, time filters) can be changed in the UI and update on the next bar.
• Source code is commented well enough for another developer to follow the logic.
• A brief PDF or text file walks me through installation and parameter setup.
