Post From: Auto-Trade Management - Complex Order

Hello,

Why would a complex order would work when activated manualy, but when that same order in a trading speadsheet it is not working ?

Details :
1. The formulas in the spreadsheet are correct. When using a single contract with a triggered trailing stop limit (with the offset and the trigger programed in the trade window), the auto-trade works, the algo is triggered and the order work.

2. When using 2 contract and adjusting the quantities of stops and target accordingly in the trade window, it works when actioned manualy, but when activating the auto trade it doesn'T work and I get a message logg with an error message.

The message says : Trade order error - Trade order Quantity is 1 and this is less than the total of 2 for the attached order. Adjust the order quantities so the parent order s greater or equal to the attach order.

... this does make sense, since my trade order is not 1 but 2, also the order works manualy. Only in auto-trade it doesn't work.
