Hello support,

is there a way to disable/enable auto trading for one side of the market?

I mean if I have a spreadsheet for trading, trading based on alert condition or ASCIL running and I'm coming to an area of interest, lets say the high of the day and just in case my condition for long return true momentarily resulting in unintentional long entry. is there a way to add a button to trading menu of trading window or the spreadsheet to disable one side of trading rather than disabling both sides? you Guys have the feature of disabling auto trading all together which is fantastic and I have a button set up in one of the control bars to quickly turn auto trading on and of.
if it is not too much or you have a better idea to achieve the same thing I would appreciate it, otherwise what we have right now will suffice.

thank you for all your hard work

regards,
Heather

No this is not supported. You need to accomplish this within your trading system. You should be able to do this within the cell formulas.
