How it trades
- You pick long or short, the contract size and the entry time (default 9:31:00 AM).
- At that second it sends one market order. It never picks direction on its own.
- Target and stop are set in dollars for the whole position (defaults $200 and $100) and converted to ticks for any contract.
- One trade per day. It won't enter if a position is already open.
Who it's for
Evaluation traders who already have a read on the New York open and want the entry, size, target and stop executed to the second.
Risk rules
- One trade per day.
- Stop loss is on by default and can be turned off. With it off, the trade has no stop.
- No time exit: the trade runs until target, stop or NinjaTrader's end-of-session exit.
- The entry time follows NinjaTrader's time-zone setting. Set NinjaTrader to Eastern time for a 9:31 AM ET entry.

Fast Nasdaq scalps: after a strong 5-minute candle, it buys or sells the 50% pullback for a fixed 35-point target.
New York · MYM · YMDow Rubber Band
When the Dow stretches too far from VWAP and snaps back inside its band, it trades the move back toward the middle.
New York · MES · ESGap Runner
