Post From: LIMIT ORDER BEHAVIOUR - STOP QUANTITY NOT UPDATING AS LIMIT TARGETS GET HIT

As trying to figure out how to build automation over trade management, I also ended up wondering the following:

It seems to be so that through "Spreadsheet System for Trading" it is possible to control order quantity (J26) and launch attached orders (K3/M3), having targets and stop specified in trade window. Spreadsheet doesn't seem to change the actual quantity setting at trade window for some reason though.

In order to set up an automated risk management calculation in spreadsheet, that controls the order quantity for manually executed orders, I should somehow get the order entry launched through spreadsheet columns, instead of regular chart trading commands and keyboard shortcuts.
So is there a way to get cell value to chance in spreadsheet through keyboard shortcut? That way I could set up the manual execution to be carried through spreadsheet, with automatically calculated quantity.
Surely the best option for such operation would be if the spreadsheet would be capable of changing the quantity value at trade window.
