Post From: Trading System Based On Alert Condition Question: GTCs

Time in force Good till Canceled is set on the orders themselves. The study still closes all open orders at end of day.
How is it set on the Targets tab of the Trade Window?

In response to post #4, for the reasons why we cannot help with this, refer to:

Also by setting Order Action on Alert to one of the Exit actions, it will certainly flatten the Position. And although you may see a signal visually from the study on a past bar at the time you enable the study, that will not generate a current order for that bar. Only the most recent bar or bars added during an update would do that.
