Hello, Before purchasing a subscription, I need to know if I can implement the following programs with Sierra Chart: - Inability to place any new order if a pending transaction is not profitable. - Inability to place an order if it is not in the direction of a trend defined by the price position relative to moving averages. - Inability to place an order if it is not between 0 and 5 ticks after the high of the last closed candlestick. - Inability to place an order for more than a predefined number of contracts (X). We tried to implement these programs but were unsuccessful. If it's feasible, I need to be put in touch with a Sierra Chart specialist coder. As you can read, I am not seeking to automate the taking of positions, which will remain manual; I am seeking to prohibit taking positions if predefined rules are not respected. Thank you for your help. |

You can control all of this. Given that you want a Manual trade and a lock out if the conditions are not right, you would probably want your program to enable "Trading Locked" when the conditions are not right. Refer to the following: ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.SetTradingLockState() A list of potential programmers is at the following link: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.php For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
