1A: The order type is set in cells J71-J74, and the Limit price is set in cells J22-J25, usually with a formula. You don't need a price in J22-J25 for Market orders. Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Limit or Stop Prices [J22, J23, J24, J25] Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Buy Entry: Order Type [J71] 1B: You don't need the ChartDOM, but it is much easier to use the Trade Window's Attached Orders for the trailing stop, if the trailing stop is not based on a spreadsheet formula. Attached Orders If the trailing stop is based on a spreadsheet formula, you should still use Attached Orders, and move the stop with the Trade Management by Study study referencing a formula (that returns a price) in row 3 of a Formula Column. This allows a protective stop to be at the exchange. Attached Orders: Study Controlled Targets and Stops 2: Read/Write and Write-Only cells in column J can contain user formulas or values that the system will use. Read-Only cells are system generated and cannot be altered by the user, but they can be referenced. |
