Hello,

I am trying to automate a trading system and the orders are not launched,

I am getting this error
(Trade Order Error - The order quantity for the Parent is 1 and this is less than the total order quantity of 2 for the Attached Orders. Adjust the order quantities so the parent is greater or equal to the Attached Orders. | 2022-12-10 18:18:31.727 *)

And I am not able to solve it, would you be so kind to help me!




Thank you

The quantity of at least one (if not more) of your attached orders is 2, but your main order is being sent for a quantity of 1. You need to make sure your Trade Window has a quantity of 1 selected and then check your Attached Orders and adjust the quantity to 1 for them (or, if you have 2 stops for example, then you would need to remove one, as each would have a quantity of 1, which would be a total quantity of 2).

Refer to the information here:
Attached Orders: Group Quantity

I followed the instructions that he sent me, I think everything is correct, even so it keeps failing, I even downloaded a system from the SC page. I attached photos, it would be appreciated if you help me detect the error. It should be said that the orders are automated through the system spreadshefortrading

You need to set the Order Quantity directly on the Sheet itself. It is this cell:
Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Order Quantity [J26]
