I want to trade multiple contracts and am having trouble finding the instructions to set this up. If I want to trade 2 contracts with the same entry but different stops can you send me the link that explains how to set this up

Thanks

Hi,

I saw your question. Here can you find what you are looking for:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_AttachedOrders.html

You can simply add stops and targets.

The second link we gave in the prior post does not explain what you want.

You need to use 2 separate stops each in a separate OCO Group.

Thanks for the help. I am unable to follow the instructions I guess. I still get a message that says Target/Stops NoMatch. Can you just send me the steps to set up trading with two contracts each with a different target but each with the same stop.
The instructions do not give an example using multiple contracts with different targets

Thanks

I'm sorry I am making this so complicated but I did save the attachment to the data file in SierraChart I then try to open the chart in this file and it still will not open.
Can you send this as another type of file or am I still doing something wrong.

Thanks for your help
