Post From: Attached order problem with Autotrade Spreadsheet

I have a problem with trade window not responding properly as "autotrade spreadsheet" changes order quantities. My spreadsheets places and cancels 'limit orders' as per conditions met, and no longer exist...It does not enter or exit trades, just places limit orders...When the order is filled, trade window configuration takes over, and places, stop, target, trailing stop etc. as part of automation. I also configure J26, order quantity cell, which tells the number of contracts to be placed as orders; in my case if daily P/L is reaches to $150, increase quantity to 2, if P/L is more than $400, increase quantity to 3, etc. As I do replays, and watch the trade activity log, as chart is being re-played I observe the order quantity is increasing and decreasing as daily P/L changes, so my formula and setup is o.k. Under live conditions, when 'autotrade spreadsheet' is in charge, I observe the amount of contracts placed increases from 1 to 2 as daily P/L crosses above $150, filled orders increase from 1 to 2, and also attached orders placed, with increased amounts like stops and targets. Problem starts when daily P/L falls below $150, I see in the spreadsheet J26 cell showing quantity of 1, order placed is 1 but when the order is filled, attached orders are not sent to exchange, no targets, no stops, just the order with quantity equals 1! I also observe on the 'trade window' that the quantity button 2 is depressed - assuming left from the previous order! In short as quantities increase 'trade window' places the attached orders properly, but as the quantity decreases 'trade window' ignores attached orders... please help! thank you |
