Post From: Trade Management Study Issue

I typically put both targets 40 ticks away from my entry once I'm filled so that they're out of the way. I then wait for a signal that I create through my spreadsheet. Let's say I'm long and filled at 10 and after a few minutes the price moves 3 ticks in my favor, the signal triggers and the price it tells the first target (OCO Group 1) to move to is 13. Under normal circumstances the OCO Group 1 target will move to 13. Then it might keep going and I'll get a signal to move the second target to 15 (OCO Group 2). It does so and I'm closed out of my position. If I get filled, and for whatever reason I need to cancel the attached orders to change size or whatever, and I have to bring back the attached orders by using 'send attached orders by position', the targets do not move where they are supposed to once triggered. So in this case if the first signal happens at 13, the spreadsheet will tell the target to move to 13 through the trade management study, but the actual target does nothing. It doesn't move there. It doesn't work. |
