Hello, I have 2 issues I would be grateful for some assistance. 1. When I selected the symbol for the new charts I setup, I could only find the ES CME MINI S&P 500, not MICRO. So I entered the symbol reference in the search field and renamed it ESZ22-CME[M]. However, I checked the tick value and found it set for the Micro @ $12.50, so I changed it to $1.25. I’m assuming that was an incorrect procedure which would cause problems and should be corrected before the account is connected to the CME for live trading. I have since discovered that the Micro I was looking for can be found under MES CME Micro Minis S&P 500 index, but I haven’t found how to replace the incorrect Mini symbol with the correct Micro to my newly set up charts, and I’m hoping I don’t have to start from scratch, as it took me some weeks to figure out how to setup and configure my Chartbook containing 8 Linked charts. Problem 2. I would like to place trades without attached orders or any bracket or OCO orders. I am able to place a Market Order with no Target & Stop Loss. I have unselected ‘Use Attached Orders’ and selected Market in the dropdown menu, although the top field of the Trade Window still shows SimpleBracket with no apparent option for Market Order. However, if for example, I have a Sell order that is losing by 10 ticks, and I want to place a Buy order at that losing Price Point while I wait for the Price to return to break even on the Sell position, instead of the Buy order appearing at the later losing Price Point, it simply cancels the Sell order at a loss without adding the Buy order. I tried all the Trade Window buttons to the same effect and found no solution in the Trade Documentation info. If you have a method or set up to solve this conundrum, I’d be grateful, thanks. |
