Thank you for your response. 1- I fail to see the value of BE button then. I have worked with BE orders on other platforms, but can't seem to figure out the function of BE button on SC if it is price dependent. To me, it should remove all orders, and place an exit order (Stop, or Limit) at the entry price (+/- offset). What I am hearing is that, if the price is below (long position), it would execute the Stop Loss market order on the spot, and if it is above, then it puts it where it was entered (ignoring offset). Please clarify if I am wrong. 2- The two chartbooks are on two different monitors, and after reviewing the documentation, having the second chart book as a new instance seemed to be the recommended set up (each chart book has two charts active). The settings are set to Trade>>Chart Trade Mode On. I am testing (paper trading) and orders on one chartbook do not show up on the other chartbook (second screen). Any way to get orders to show up on both? 3- I have two chartbooks open, with two charts within each. I am only viewing one symbol (ES), I still experience frequent freezes, typically when I click on a menu button. Specifically, it tends to freeze if I click on "Chart" or "Tools" menu up top. I see no reason for it, as my usage seems to be light compared to SC's capabilities, and I have a powerful PC. This is a concern for me. Lastly, I have 2 brokerages (IBKR, AMP (CQG data)). I have signed up for Denali data feed as well. My goal is to be able to trade each account at my discretion. It would seem counter productive to install and open a copy of SC for each brokerage, especially because I trade the same symbol most of the time, and I am already experiencing regular freezing without a second copy installed as mentioned above. Is it possible to pick which account to trade simply by using the drop down menu? Would it be possible to have these data feeds all connect to the same chartbook to allow this? In the presence of multiple data feeds (CQG/IBKR/Denali) do I still have any advantage using the Denali data feed? Thank you for your help in advance.
