Okay, but are you using the Trading System Based on Alert Condition study:?
Trading System Based on Alert Condition

In this particular case make sure the order quantity is being set through the correct Trade Window:

Yes but really it is best that we get the chart so we can help you with this directly. But if you want to reset Sierra Chart to a default state, refer to:

If you are using the Spreadsheet System for Trading study, you MUST use cell J26 for the order quantity.
(This spreadsheet study overrides the Trade Window's order quantity.)

If J26 is blank, the order quantity defaults to 1.

Thank you Tom. Hopefully that answers their question. We just wanted to make sure we know exactly what study they are using for automated trading.
