Hello, I have a problem with Simulation Trading. I have multiples Chartbooks and Charts open, when I make trades. At the end of the day, let's say before 15.55 Est, I want to Cancel and Flatten all my orders, because I don't want to hold the positions overnite. When I go to '' Trade / Trade orders and positions / and then I click : Cancel All '' It does Cancel all attached orders (Childs), but it does not Cancel my Working Orders (Parents). This is very problematic because I have to go inside all of my Charts (around 10-15) and verify that no trade is Working, if so, I have to Flatten and Cancel each one of them, one by one. The last operation is painful. My question is : Is it possible to Flatten and Cancel all the Working and Attached orders (Parents and Childs) with one Button / Function ? If not, would it be possible to add this Functionality ? Thanks Regards |

We need to write up documentation for how to do this. This will be done at the end of the day.

I tryed to flatten all simulated orders and trades, but it does not work since they are not real pending orders. Could you please try to Flatten and Cancel all simulated orders and trades and let me know if I am doing something wrong ? Cancel all orders will cancel all attached orders, and I cannot Flatten Parents orders with simulation mode. Thanks Regards Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-04-25 03:13:36

There is not a way to flatten all simulated Trade Positions at once. Only non-simulated Positions. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Could you implement a button for that function ? Something like : ''Flatten and cancel all simulated orders'' , or '' Cancel all Simulated orders and trades''. That would be really useful to anybody that returns to the simulator to test new strategies or going back to the scratch table to build a new ones. I have a hard time to cancel my trades, because I have orders in all the instruments. Also when you have automatic rollover, you generate open order in the previous month contract and there is no way to know that, so you leave trades open indefinitely and it is really annoying to manage the Trade Activity Log in these conditions. That would be really appreciate. Thanks Regards |

Hello Is there any setting in SC that would allow the "Flatten and Cancel" all working orders that is documented below to occur at the end of the day, at a certain time without having to actually pressing the flatten button ? Perhaps it can be done by a custom study ? Please advise. Thank you. Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Flattening All Non-simulated Positions and Canceling All Orders in a Single Operation |
