Hi there, We are working on craeting a position sizing study for FX trading. With two mouse click we would like to determine stop loss and entry levels and add ask-bid difference to them in tick values. Then use this value to calculate quantity. For example If I trade GBPJPY pair and If my capital is in $; Capital is 100K$ and allowed risk percentage is 1% per trade. So quantity is being calculated according to it. I have below questions. 1. To calculate quantity, this study needs to reach current USD/JPY Ask Price. Is there a way to do it without opening a chart inside the chartbook containing USDJPY pair such as reading directly from intraday file? 2. Can I set attached orders target trigger offset and stop offset via the study? Thanks. Ilim. |

1. You can use this particular ACSIL function: sc.GetBasicSymbolData() 2. No not currently. We would have to add that capability.

Yes we will add the capability in the next few days for ACSIL to configure attached orders but not submit orders. Assuming there are no technical problems with this.

It is added. The function is sc.SetAttachedOrders(const s_SCNewOrder& AttachedOrdersConfiguration); It just takes a s_SCNewOrder data structure filled out with the Attached order settings and this then configures the Attached Orders on the Trade Window for the chart the trading study is on.

Could you add an example to the documentation? Automated Trading From an Advanced Custom Study: sc.SetAttachedOrders Thanks! |
