NinjaTrader Order Entry Setup: Faster Brackets for MNQ/NQ/ES/MES

Every second you spend adjusting NinjaTrader ATM Strategy templates and bracket orders is time you’re not spending on execution. When markets move fast, the biggest mistakes come from slow order entry: wrong position size, wrong stop distance, wrong targets, or brackets that don’t match the chart.

In this video, we compare NinjaTrader’s built-in ATM (Automated Trade Management) Strategy—bracket orders with OCO logic (entry + stop loss + profit targets)—against the XABCD Position Tool, a visual risk management and position sizing tool built for speed. This is for NinjaTrader futures traders who want a cleaner workflow for MNQ, NQ, ES, MES (or any instrument), with fewer clicks and fewer order-entry errors.

What you’ll see (side-by-side):
Position sizing calculator: fixed % risk or $ risk, instantly
Bracket orders with multi-target exits and automatic allocation (percent distribution auto-normalizes to 100%)
Drag-to-adjust entry, stop-loss, and profit targets with live recalculation + automatic bracket rebuild
Hotkeys + 1-click order entry: submit, flip direction, break-even, trailing stop controls
Copy/paste trade plans and one-action reset of the full OCO bracket
Optional voice alerts/callouts so you can manage risk without being glued to the screen

U.S. GOVERNMENT REQUIRED DISCLAIMER - HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results, all of which can adversely affect trading results.

RISK DISCLOSURE
The risk of loss in trading equities, futures, currencies, and options can be substantial. You may sustain a total loss of the initial margin funds and any additional funds deposited, and you may be required to deposit additional margin on short notice. Under certain market conditions, you may find it difficult or impossible to liquidate a position (e.g., "limit moves"), and contingent orders (including stop-loss or stop-limit orders) may not limit losses to the intended amounts.
