Hello, am I able to place a manual trade(On the Dom), while still using the J80/J81 offset as my bracket, when using the Spreadsheets automated trading study? I'll give some context: I have formulas that calculate both my target and stop offset, and when K3 is true and an auto entry happens, the bracket uses the offsets from j80/j81;it works amazing! What I would like to do is have this same offset be calculated on my bracket when I click the dom for a manual entry, can I do this? And if so, how? I tried using a spreadsheet with an empty K3 cell and with offset values in J80/J81, but when I hit market orders it doesn't update the target/stop offset from the spreadsheet. Any Suggestions??

You could calculate your offsets in 2 Formula Columns, e.g., O3 & P3 (SG5 & SG6), then reference those values with two instances of the Trade Management by Study study, one for the Target and one for the Stoploss.You would use an Attached Orders config with default offsets, then the Trade Management by Study study would move them.

Thank you Sawtooth! I was able to get the stops in the right place. Do you know if there is a way to do this with the quantity? Have the quantity of the trade modified automatically? I looked to see if I could find a quantity management study but didn't find anything like that.

Have the quantity of the trade modified automatically?
Use a formula in J26 that returns the desired quantity.If your exit quantity is different, use J82/J83. |
