Hello,

I read on another thread that the TradingTriggeredLimitOrderEntry.cpp study is the only way to use negative offset for stop limit orders as they are not "natively" supported (maybe it has changed?).

If this is the case, is it possible to use shortcuts for "Set Trigger Price" and "Cancel Triggered Limit Order"? I'm using stop limits orders with negative offset in my strategy and it's not very convenient and to right click and choose them in the menu (see screenshot attached).

Thanks for your help.

A negative offset cannot be used for a Stop-Limit order because it will be rejected by the trading servers.

If this is the case, is it possible to use shortcuts for "Set Trigger Price" and "Cancel Triggered Limit Order"?
Yes, but we do not know how through the use of keyboard shortcuts this would set the prices. You would have to modify the study. Here is the relevant ACSIL documentation:
Advanced Custom Study Interaction With Menus, Control Bar Buttons, Pointer Events: Advanced Custom Study Buttons and Pointer Events

You will need to use Control Bar buttons and can assign keyboard shortcuts.
