for k3 under Buy entry when the value flashes "1" no order is executed. I've set j71:j74 to market order instead of limit. Where can I start fixing this? Thank you for your time Date Time Of Last Edit: 2022-09-09 20:59:07

The main thing is that the Input for the Spreadsheet System for Trading for Send Orders to Trading Service needs to be set to Yes. Once that is done, then if you still have an issue, then check the Trade >> Trade Service Log to see if there is any information in there about why the order did not go through.

You must also set the Limit prices in J22/J24.

Thank you for the reply This is specifically for the spreadsheet. Whether simulated or real time when column K3(Buy Entry) flashes "True" / "1" no order is executed. When the column flashes True there isn't a corresponding message log as to why it didn't execute. a side question to this, would there be a formula for the spreadsheet that says "When the value is triggered, take that current price and hold it" so that i could then use a limit price in place? in the order of trying to solve this problem. |

When the column flashes True there isn't a corresponding message log as to why it didn't execute. Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading: Ignored Signals With Spreadsheet Systems or Alerts There is an input for enhanced logging. No: would there be a formula for the spreadsheet that says "When the value is triggered, take that current price and hold it" so that i could then use a limit price in place?
For things like this you really need to use ACSIL:Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL) where can I find the option Send Orders to Trading Service?
