If the trade is triggered by the Spreadsheet System for Trading (i.e. cells K3 or M3 become True), then it should be using the quantity that is set in cell J26. Trades that are done outside of the Spreadsheet System for Trading are going to use whatever quantity is set in the Trade Window. If the trade is coming from the Spreadsheet System for Trading and the quantity is not what is entered in cell J26, then the first thing to do is to ensure that the value in J26 is actually the value you think at the time the trade is entered. Data can change quickly, so you want to make sure there is not some dependency that is causing it to change immediately after the trade is entered. Another thing to check is that you are not limiting the trade size somehow. Although this should give an error in the Trade Service Log that you are exceeding the maximum allowed quantity and not actually put in an order.
