Hi having discernible differences in trade service log vs trade orders and positions log. Using ACSIL code and buying via K & M columns using data parameters set from said spreadsheet.

Yes, sorry, have written a great deal of using ACSIL language. Im having an issue connecting but/sell entries in accordance with those columns. I would like to share parts of that code and distinguish the issues and resolve them.

If you want to know what particular order is associated with an order submission from a particular chart, automated trading study, at a particular time, refer to the Trade Activity Log:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_TradeActivityLog.php#ViewingHistoricalTA

Specifically look at the Order Action Source field.

There is no reason to provide us source code because we would never review that. Please be aware of support policy:

Sometimes if a user has a particular problem that involves something that we need to solve on our side, then a small block of code may be provided to help us isolate the problem.

Great, thx for that. I have a question involving using the spreadsheet system for trading. Im using the underlying sc.subgraph to reference buy/sell entry columns, the issue is that my system is buying both stock and options, I just want to buy options as my code dictates this. Any way to block the stock buy/sells from occurring while still buying the underlying option?

Would a study function that can be programmed to prevent it from being used on a Symbol other than the one specified work, as we will be opening charts containing different symbols attributed to K & M columns.

//This is an example to prevent a study from being used on a Chartbook other than the one specified
if(sc.ChartbookName != "Chartbook50")
return;

//This is an example to prevent a study from being used on a symbol other than the one specified
if(sc.Symbol != "ABCD")
return;

Therefore, do not use the Spreadsheet System for Trading study. And instead use the Spreadsheet System/Alert study:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_SystemsAlerts.php

You can reference the results of that study but that study will not submit orders itself.

Regarding post #7. What do you think? We do not provide programming help.

Thx, the alert system works great. On another note, im having an issue referencing column M or sell entries utilizing the same methodology in referencing column K for buy entries. Been struggling with the code on this for awhile, I'm hoping this is a "small block of code" for you to reference and help us out.

Thanks-

//s_ChartStudySubgraphValues SpreadSheetColK;
//SpreadSheetColK.ChartNumber = ISpreadSheetChartNo.GetChartNumber();
//SpreadSheetColK.StudyID = ISpreadSheetChartNo.GetStudyID();
//SpreadSheetColK.SubgraphIndex = 10; //K
SCFloatArray SpreadSheetColKBuyArray;
sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(ISpreadSheetChartNo.GetStudyID(), 0, SpreadSheetColKBuyArray); //K
//sc.GetStudyArrayFromChartUsingID(SpreadSheetColK, SpreadSheetColKBuyArray);

//s_ChartStudySubgraphValues SpreadSheetColM;
//SpreadSheetColM.ChartNumber = ISpreadSheetChartNo.GetChartNumber();
//SpreadSheetColM.StudyID = ISpreadSheetChartNo.GetStudyID();
//SpreadSheetColM.SubgraphIndex = 12; //M
SCFloatArray SpreadSheetColMSellArray;
sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(ISpreadSheetChartNo.GetStudyID(), 1, SpreadSheetColMSellArray); //M
//sc.GetStudyArrayFromChartUsingID(SpreadSheetColM, SpreadSheetColMSellArray);

if ((IsTradeTime) &&
(sc.Index >= PermData->HistoricalArraySize) &&
(!sc.ChartIsDownloadingHistoricalData(sc.ChartNumber)))
{
int kIndex = SpreadSheetColKBuyArray.GetArraySize() - 1;
if ((SpreadSheetColKBuyArray[kIndex] != 0) ||
PermData->OrderSignal[CALL] )
{
if (!PermData->OrderSignal[CALL])
{
sprintf(msg, "Signal - Buy");
sc.AddMessageToLog(msg, false);
}

PermData->OrderSignal[CALL] = true;
PermData->NewEntryPrice = round(sc.BaseData[SC_LAST][sc.Index]);
OptionPos* optionPos = PermData->OptionPosList;

// submit order for entry, including target and stop
DoOneEntry(sc, CALL, optionPos, SGEntryMarker, PermData);
PermData->NewEntryPrice = -1;

}
}
}

We do not provide programming help. This is a treacherous territory for us to attempt to help a user with and we must stay clear of it. It is your responsibility to debug your own code.

If you are 100% percent confident there is something that Sierra Chart is not doing correctly, then we need a simple example to demonstrate it. However, first refer to the documentation to make sure you are using the functions properly. And work with the provided examples that use the ACSIL functions, to verify that those functions do work properly. You will see that they do.
