Post From: Order confirmations with ACSIL automated trading system

No, it has to be manually released. Not sure it makes sense to have an automated program submit a held order then later release it. You should simply submit an order when you actually want to.

That's what automated trading systems do. What is the difference between having a study release a trade and submitting one in the future? That is when I want it submitted.

I want to submit and hold before the market opens, as I know the levels, I just don't want any fills before a specific time. The orders are later released when I am at work and unable to manually do it.

If the orders could be held and later released at CurrentSystemtime == HH:MM:SS, then that would be great. Something like
sc.ReleaseOrder(OrderID);

I like the fact that you continually add new features and a held order feature is a good one. I see you added it several years ago, and only now have I learned about it, which is good news/bad news. It will be complete when it is the release is automated.

Thank you.
