HELLO I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU A QUESTION :

I WORK WITH BAR CHARTS AND AN ACSIL TRADING SYSTEM THAT TAKE ACTION AT THE CLOSE OF EACH BAR.

MY QUESTION IS IF IT IS POSIBLE IN SIERRA CHARTS IF I SEND A LIMIT ORDER AT A PRICE AND IT DOESN'T GET FILLED AND THEN THE PRICE MOVES SOME TICKS AWAY FROM WHERE THE LIMIT ORDER WAS SENT , BUT THE BAR STILL HAS NOT CLOSED ,THEN I WOULD LIKE THE TRADING SYSTEM TO CANCEL THAT ORDER AUTOMATICALLY ,SO WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO PROGRAM IN ACSIL TO CANCEL THIS ORDER BEFORE THE BAR HAS CLOSED,? .

SO IT WOULD BE TO CLOSE AN OPEN ORDER BUT IN INTRA - BAR, IT WOULD SEND THE LIMIT ORDER AT THE LAST OF THE PREVOUS BAR AND IT WOULD CANCEL THE ORDER AT A DETERMINED PRICE LEVEL BUT BEFORE THE BAR (WHERE THE ORDER WAS SENT) HAS CLOSED.

THE TRADING SYSTEM WOULD TRACK THE MARKET AND THEN WHEN IT GET TO A PRICE LEVEL THE ORDER IS CANCELLED AUTOMATICALLY, EVEN IF THE BAR STILL HAS NOT CLOSED.IS IT POSSIBLE TO PROGRAM THAT IN ACSIL?

IF SO COULD YOU GIVE ME PLEASE A HINT OF HOW TO DO THIS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE.
