I set up an automated trading using spreadsheet,

I cleared attached target offset column j80,
and attached stop offset column j81,

see also picture number 2,

than I set up attached order using the trading window for the chart,
target - 3 points, 12 ticks
stop - 4 points, 16 ticks

see also picture number 1,

when there's a trading signal entry in the spreadsheet,
it activates different bracket order,
target - 4 points,
stop - 3 points,

see also picture number 3


how can I know where this order setup is coming from ?

and how to I make sure that the attached orders(stop and target)
will come from the trading window
and not from the spreadsheet or different source.

Image 3 shows a Stop that is 4 points (16 ticks) and a Target that is 3 points (12 ticks), just the way you want it to be. So the attached orders are coming from the Trade Window as you expect.

and how to I make sure that the attached orders(stop and target)
will come from the trading window
and not from the spreadsheet or different source.

It either comes from the Trade Window or the Spreadsheet System for Trading - assuming you are using the Spreadsheet System for Trading. There is not another source.

If the information is in the Spreadsheet System for Trading that defines a Target and/or Stop, then it will come from those settings. Otherwise, if the Spreadsheet System for Trading does NOT define a target or stop, then the Trade Window configuration is used.
