Hi

Spreadsheet system for trading

1. Trade management by Study
Situation is as follows : I'm develping spread sheet system for trading and I wanna move Target if position is open and "n" minutes have passed form current target new target calculated/linked in "TG". Everithing is done and in my TG column is new target. I'm using attached orders J80 and J81.
Now I go to Trade management by Study : Enabled, targets, I select spredsheet and column, On bar close.... What about Trailing offset?
Idea is if the current target is i.e. 10 and I calculate new one of 6 and when the condition is meet Study moves Target from +10 to +6.
I tryed to set Trailing offset to 0, TG was calculated to 6 and On bar close it removed target order.
Is this possible now or it will be in the future that you can put in one field which can read from TG3 or one field in J column (in Study settings another Offset which will read J column field)?
I presume if the number in TG is differnet 0 it will trigger offset. I just want to be able to tell him new offset from spredsheet.


2. When I open the chartbook with the system, it opens a Default Spreadsheet for trading not the saved XYZ spreadsheet I'm working on. I neeed to select XYZ Spreadsheet under Study Settings and configure it each time. Should I delete Default one?

thnx

1. This is far outside the scope of our support.

This does not make any sense at all.

The particular Spreadsheet that the Spreadsheet System for Trading study is referencing through the Spreadsheet Name setting , will not change when the Chartbook containing the Spreadsheet System for Trading study is reopened. Here is the documentation for Chartbooks:
