I want to have an automatic emergency stop loss order that cancels all open orders and flattens. I have created a Trading spreadsheet and have added the Study "Trading Daily Profit/Loss. I want to have the Cancel All and Flatten generated when the Daily P/L is less than an input number, eg <$999. How can I code this? Thanks |

thanks. It's helpful even if a bit complicated. Would it be possible to have a "Turn on and Reset button" for the Loss Management feature appear on the "Trade Window for Chart"? I think this would be helpful for most retail traders with small accounts. (I did get clobbered on Friday 7/27 and couldn't hit the Cancel All and Flatten buttons fast enough.) |

The "Global Profit Loss Management" is very comprehensive but for the typical retail trader it is much too complicated. I suggest that it could be simplified by having the controls on the Trade Window for Chart. By adding a Stop Loss amount to the Targets and a On/Off/Reset Button on the main and Compact panel.
