Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to do the following scenario in portfolio trader and how I would go about doing so:
1) Buy Signal is generated for instrument X
2) Signal for instrument X triggers a buy/sell trade on instruments Y
So in essence I want parameters used on Signal for instrument X to open positions on different/multiple other instruments.
I am not looking for the Signal (and its parameters) on instrument X to apply to the other instruments, rather just trigger an identical buy/sell order.
Thanks

Hello shimreaper,
In Portfolio Trader, you can use several data series. Please use instrument Y as Data 1 and instrument X as Data 2. Apply a signal which uses Data 2 and generates orders. The orders will be sent for the instrument Y (Data 1).

I am however still at a loss what signal / how to generate a signal from Data 2 so that it trades on Data 1.Hello shimreaper,

Could you elaborate more or give me some pointers? Appreciate it.
Thank you
