Hi, I learned from this thread... DTC Protocol \| Post: 130291 ... that I can reverse a position by setting OpenOrClose to TRADE_UNSET while placing an order (unless I'm using BitMEX or TD Ameritrade... I have neither). I have a related question: Can I place an open OpenOrClose==TRADE_UNSET market, limit, or stop order and expect it to be able to: * increase long * decrease long * reverse * increase short * and decrease short... ... my position and for Sierra Chart to not care? For example: I place a stop or limit order when my position is short, and then my position is long by the time it is executed/triggered. What would have at the time of order submission been a close is now an open, and vice versa. FYI, this would be particularly useful if I'm running multiple trading algorithms on the same asset.
