Post From: Resting Limit profit target BuyExit order with spreadsheet trading

I have an indicator study that calculates the profit target level, displays the level and price with a line on the chart.

I use the $H$20 cell to capture and store the profit target value.

Is it possible to have a resting take profit limit BuyExit order that shows up on the chart waiting to be filled. Code snippet etc would be a great help?

I don't want an market order sent based on $E$3 >=$H$20.
Because in a fast moving market,the negative slippage may fill the order several negative ticks down from the profit target.
I will also be trading 2 contracts with a profit target for each contract.

I am also using a dynamic trailing stop that moves up based on a calculated value from the same indicator study stored in the $H$21 cell.
I plan to use the Trade Management by study to handle the trailing stop.

Thanks in advance for any help and/or code snoppet.
