Hi all, Tried looking for answers to this but can't seem to find any. I use preset templates for attached orders (particularly stops) and send them after I build my position using "send attached orders by position". The templates need you to define the stop quantities in advance. My sizing varies and so I end up having to modify the quantities after sending the order. Is there a way to have SC use the current open position size for the attached orders? Hope I explained that clearly. Thanks. |

There is not a built-in way to do this. You would have to create a custom study to do what you want. Refer to the following: Automated Trading From an Advanced Custom Study https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.php For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
