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

Would it help to (automatically) disable auto trading (J28) on spreadsheet 1 and 2 when i do get a valid entry on spreadsheet 3? Would this prevent spreadsheet 3 that is not disabled to use the levels from the spreadsheet that are disabled?

Edit: It looks like the answer to this one is no, it still uses the levels from the disabled spreadsheets.

I have tried using the L and N column but this wont work, since i need to use the $J$8 value to disable or enable auto trading, but the spreadsheet doesn't differentiate between an active order from spreadsheet 1 or spreadsheet 2, so once a trade is opened, auto trading will be enabled on all spreadsheets.

One thing i really don't understand, here is the situation:

Chart 1 has a spreadsheet for trading with a specific name and a trade management study, this chart has ES as selected instrument.
Chart 2 has a spreadsheet for trading with a different name and a trade management study, this chart also has ES as instrument.

Why does the trade management study from chart 1 uses the price levels from spreadsheet for trading on chart 2, which is on different chart, the spreadsheet has a different name and the spreadsheet's auto trading is disabled?
Why is the trade management study using levels from a spreadsheet that isn't selected in its options and isn't even on the same chart?

That doesn't make sense to me.
