Hello, I have three open limit orders for three different symbols (e.g., ES, NQ, YM). I want the limit orders for YM and NQ to be automatically cancelled as soon as the ES order is filled. How can I achieve this either through trading platform settings or by programming? Thanks! |

1) You create a study in ACSIL which on ES shows TRUE when there is a position on ES. 2) On YM and NQ you create an study in ACSIL which links to the open position (TRUE / FALSE (1 or 0) ) study on ES. When the ES Position study changes from 1 to 0 this would then trigger a close of the limit orders on YM and NQ. Just as a rough concept to get you started |

There is not a way to do this using the built-in tools in Sierra Chart. You would have to create a custom study. Refer to the following: Automated Trading From an Advanced Custom Study For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

I maintain open limit orders for ES, NQ, YM, and RTY. Whenever one of these orders is filled, I aim to cancel all remaining open orders for the other symbols. The following study is applied to every trading chart. It tries to ensure that as soon as an order fills, all other orders on other chart's symbol are canceled. Given that studies are executed at every bar, this frequency may be insufficient to promptly detect filled orders. Therefore, I'm considering whether it would be more effective to subscribe to a filled position alert (if there is any) and activate this study across each trading chart book accordingly. In any case, attached code is not even getting executed once (I have print statements that are not producing any output in the log). I would appreciate any help. ****************************** // The top of every source code file must include this line #include "sierrachart.h" SCDLLName("CloseOpenOrders DLL") /* I maintain open limit orders for ES, NQ, YM, and RTY.

your check if (sc.Symbol != PositionSymbol)
{ // Close all orders for the other symbols sc.CancelAllOrders; } will only be triggered when a new symbol was selected for the current chart. sc.CancelAllOrders will try to cancel the orders on the new symbol but not the prior one. see Automated Trading From an Advanced Custom Study: sc.CancelAllOrders As suggested before for the scenario you described in your first post, the way I'd approach this is having for ES a study which shows the number open position size. NQ and RTY will have a study which reads the Position size from the ES Chart and when that goes to 0 the study will execute sc.CancelAllOrders closing all orders on NQ and RTY. |
