Good morning Sierra Chart, I searched the forums, and tried following instructions according to your documentation, however when I place an order via chart trading, the order quantity entered when the order is placed is still 10000. My Symbol Settings are attached - default quantity is set to 1. Any ideas what I may be missing? Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-07-29 13:25:09

You need to change the Order Quantities on the Trade Window: Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Main/C >> Order Quantity Buttons Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Set >> Button 1-6 Quantity Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

I have done that already - it's currently set to 1. I have taken some screenshots to show you. Even if I manually set the "Order Quantity Limit" to a value of 2, it still puts in an order for 10k. See attached. |

Please disregard - I have figured this out. I had to add the order window to each one of my charts, and then change the default quantities, and click the "1" to set them all to default to 1.

You have different charts with different order quantities in them which is supported. The quantity is not controlled at the symbol level, it is at the chart level. You just need to change the quantity for that one chart.
