Stop Limit in Tradestation

T

TheStudent

Hi,

Does anyone know the EasyLanguage code for placing a Stop Limit in Tradestation?

Let's say you want the computer to place a 110 stop limit order to buy when spot is 100 - how do you do that?

I know the code for a buy stop is

"Buy next bar 1 contract at 110 stop;"

Anyone with the answer?

I don't remember the code perfectly, it's bit lengthy.
But i have it, will send to you later today
 
nana,

thanks so much.

I've given up using automated stop entries because I get such bad execution in YM ... gone back to the stone age for now.
 
Not sure still you want it , incase need it later

Vars:ONBlimit(false), ONBstop(false), ONBlimit2(false),
ONBstop2(false), ONBlimitvalue(0), ONBstopvalue(0);

ONBlimitvalue=High+4 points; {Replace with your own point values}
ONBstopvalue=High+2 points; {Replace with your own point values}

ONBlimit= Open of next Bar >= ONBlimitvalue;
ONBstop= Open of next Bar<= ONBstopvlaue;
ONBlimit2= Open of next Bar <= ONBlimitvalue;
ONBstop2= Open of next Bar>= ONBstopvlaue;

If ONBlimit then buy next bar at ONBlimitvalue limit
else If ONBstop then buy next bar at ONBstopvlaue stop
else if ONBlimit2 and ONBstop2 then buy next bar at market;

Above is stop limit order for Buy order, also same for Buytocover
orders (just replace exit short with the word "buy").

For short and sell order, everything opposite.
