Hi,

I'm using SC Order Routing service and i have problem with three combinations of symbols when i use second symbol only for trading.
I've use them before with different trading service and they worked fine.

1st when i use CL as main symbol and select QM as Trade only symbol i cant see executions and working orders on the chart.
2nd when i use 6E as main symbol and select M6E as Trade only symbol....
3rd when i use 6E as main symbol and select E7 as Trade only symbol....

Can you please check and fix this ?
I'm sure this is working with other trading service.

Best Regards

I see the explanation ,

Can I had one thing.

I want to trade options from the Symbol charts .

I just test it and it works , but is their a way to make the Quotes visible on the charts
so I can see my buy price with stop loss and profit target ?

Ex : amd is at 143$ and the option price im trading is at 1.42$

Thanks in advance. And Everyday , I love even more the platform as There is nothing I cannot do .

Yes you can. If this option is disabled:
Chart Settings: Use as Trade Only Symbol (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)

You will then see the price in the Window >> Current Quote Window and the bid and ask prices will be in the Chart Header.

Or you could look at doing some kind of overlay from a chart for the symbol you are trading. Refer to:
Overlay - Single Line
