Does Sierra charts support orders for multiple instruments from one chart? Or from one automated trading strategy?
Thanks for your help.

No. Unless you are trading an exchange traded spread which will take a position in more than one market.

To not open a new thread i will continue here.

Is there any other way to open an order in 2 different futures contracts at the same time?

For example when my broker doesn't support exchange traded spreads so i want to trade a spread myself.

Lets say i want to short 1 ZN futures contract and buy 1 ZB futures contract, what would be the most efficient way to do this? I hope there is a solution so that i can do it in 1 click to minimize slippage and i don't have to click buy/sell twice?

There probably is a spread listed by the CBOT for this particular intercommodity spread. Can you check with the exchange and see if they have one and what the symbol is.


They do have many of them and they are all supported by the Sierra Chart Order Routing Service:

My broker doesn't support spreads and i have no intention changing brokers right now.

Is there an efficient way to enter in 2 different markets with just 1 click or a way to send multiple market orders at the same time?

That is very surprising your broker does not support exchange traded spreads. You should be trading with a broker that does.

We do plan to add live trading capability to trade Custom Calculated Symbols:
Custom Calculated Symbols

However, this is not yet available.
