If you have specified a quantity in the J column cell for "Order Quantity" then this will override the quantity that is set in the Trade Window. Refer to the following: Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Order Quantity (read / write) [v1:J26, v2:J69] To open a Buy Limit or Sell Limit you need to set the J column cell for "Buy Entry: Order Type" and/or "Sell Entry" Order Type" to be "L" for Limit (or "SL" for Stop Limit) and then set the J column cell for "Limit or Stop Price - Buy Entry" and/or "Limit or Stop Price - Sell Entry" to be the Limit price you want. You can enter a formula in these cells to get the previous hour's Lowest and Highest values. Refer to the following: Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Buy Entry: Order Type (read/write) [v1:J71, v2:J73] Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Limit or Stop Prices (read/write) [[v1:J22,v2:J78], [v1:J23,v2:J79], [v1:J24,v2:J80], [v1:J25,v2:J81] Spreadsheet Functions: Serial DateTime Values For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
