Documentation

How StopWarden installs, what it watches, every action it can take, and how to read what it tells you. The command-line program is called autopilot; the product is StopWarden.

Three words you will meet first: Watch is the free mode, which reads NinjaTrader’s log and alerts you and sends no orders on its own. Protect is the paid mode, which attempts to close a position left without a stop and to cancel orphan (leftover) orders. Learn is the report that measures how your strategy places its stops; you read it and accept it before Protect can switch on.
