Dear Sierrachart-Team,

let's say my entry price comes a few candels after an color based alert study gives me a signal. I want to set the stopp loss on top of the last highlightet candle from the alert study.

How can I do that automaticly the attached order wont work. I tried the Trade Management by Study but I can't use this for a previus signal. Is it possible to do this in the Spreedsheet System for Trading? And if yes how can I pic the last highlightet candle from the alert study?

Is there a way to do this without programming skills like a simple formular?

You will want to do this using the Spreadsheet System for Trading study:
Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading

You can control the Stop Attached order offset with this cell:
Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Attached Order Stop Offset (write only) [J81]

And if yes how can I pic the last highlightet candle from the alert study?
You will need to work out the formula for this.
