Post From: Multiple Spreadsheet System for Trading on the same instrument

It seems like it isn't possible to get to use multiple spreadsheets for trading on the same instrument without them interfering with each other. The entries are fine, but the exits are an issue. If system 1 gets a signal to enter, it can get closed from system 2 or 3. I have tried using attached orders, which works, but only with a preset value. Once i use the Trade Management by Study study, i run in to the same issue. The entry goes fine, but the Trade Management by Study study can also use levels from the other systems instead of the system that triggered the initial signal. The same goes for the L and N column, spreadsheet 1 can close the position it opened because the value of column N is true in spreadsheet 3. I have tried giving each Spreadsheet it's own chart, with its own Trade Management by Study study, yet it kept using levels from the other charts as well. I have read about this issue before, and back then the only solution to this issue was using multiple accounts, but that isn't something i want to do. Is there another solution by now for this issue? Like for example adding an unique code per spreadsheet to the orders, so the spreadsheet only change orders with the same special code. Or maybe allowing users to change the symbol name without changing the underlaying instrument, that way i could create the instrument ES1, ES2, ES3, ... the underlying instrument would be the same but that way the spreadsheets have a way to differentiate each instrument, i know this is possible with for example Multicharts, but i haven't found anything like this for Sierra Charts. If anyway knows about a workaround, or if there is a solution, i would love to hear it. If not i hope Sierra Charts will create some kind of work around since i really think this would benefit a lot of people and would make the Spreadsheet System for Trading much more useful.
