I sure wish that someone would share how to setup Trade configurations for useful trade management. SC has the most sophistacted Trade Management in the industry and I bet the fewest users who can set it up. The documentation is factual but requires a genius to apply it to typical situations. My latest wish is to find a way to enter a buy or sell at a specific number of ticks above or below the market to capture breakouts in either direction. I have no clue how to do this. I have many other ideas for order entry and exit that I can never never test because I can't spend hours trying to decipher instructions that assume I am already an expert. A simple illustrated guide based on configurations found useful would be so helpful. Regards |
