Post From: Automation Is Triggering NQ Orders when on an MNQ Chart

On the far right of the Trade Activity Log is a column for "IsAutomated". Is there a "Y" in that column for the NQ orders?

If so, then this order would be coming from your trading study. You would need to look at your study and see if it may open a position for both MNQ and NQ.

On the other hand, if it shows "N", then this would mean that the order was entered manually.


Is it possible for unopened chartbooks to trigger automation?

Absolutely not.
