Hello, Using a Spreadsheet Study, how can I set a Limit order entry with a tick Offset? For example, my system generates a Long at 3142.75, I only want my limit order filled if price pulls back two ticks (3142.25). I understand how to do it manually using the "Trading: Triggered Limit Order Entry" study and then right clicking on the click. Is there a way to trigger this study automatically from within the spreadsheet? Thank you, Tom |

When using Limit entries in the Spreadsheet System for Trading study: - the entry signal is in K3/M3. - the Limit price is in J22/J24. You will reference J21 for the offset, like this (previous High minus 2 ticks): =C4-J21*2 - the Order Type is in J71/J73. 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] You'll also need a way to cancel an unfilled order. Here are a couple of examples: Spreadsheet Example Formulas and Usage: Cancel Unfilled Working Order n Minutes After Entry Spreadsheet Example Formulas and Usage: Cancel an Unfilled Order After n Bars Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-02-09 18:47:20
