Post From: Keyboard shortcut to place buy limit order one tick above previous high

You can use the Spreadsheet System for Trading to put the Limit (which you would probably want as a Stop Limit) order where you want it. But there is not a way to use a keyboard shortcut to manage the on/off for that system.

The other built-in systems do not offer the Limit/Stop-Limit options, but do have the keyboard shortcut capability to turn the system on/off.

It would probably be easiest to modify the "Trading System Based on Alert Condition" study to change the order type. This study is in the file TradingSystemBasedOnAlertCondition.cpp in the ACS_Source folder under your main Sierra Chart installation folder.

You can also find a list of potential programmers at the following link:
