Portfolio Trading on MultiCharts

Postby ctu1121 » 17 Sep 2014

Hi,
I could use bracket order on Interactive Broker TWS(IB TWS).
However, "bracket order" on IB TWS could be used in single contract only.
I could long YM and use bracket order to setup USD1000 as lose or profit target,
if traget was met, my trading platform will close YM.

I am looking for trading platform which provides "portfolio bracket order".
For example, I would have three portfolio as below:

portfolio1: long 1YM, long 2NQ, short 1 ES,
profit target USD1000, lose target USD1000

portfolio2: long 100AAPL, short 200XLK
profit target USD500, lose target USD500

portfolio3: long 100SPY, Long 200TLT
profit target USD100, lose target USD100

If portfolio1 meet profit target, my trading platform will help me to close all positions on portfolio1.
All positions on portfolio2 and 3 still live.

Does Multicharts provide portfolio bracket order function?
Thanks.

Charles

Hello Charles,

Orders are per instrument, not per a portfolio of instruments. That is possible to program the logic that will be based on certain rules for placing individual orders for multiple instruments.
