Hello Vin,

Your trading resolution is always the main data series. You need to have a chart open for each instrument you want to trade.
The only way to make charts talk between each other and make it possible to send orders from one chart to the other is to use Global Variables.

We also have MultiCharts .Net version where you can create a study using C# or VisualBasic.Net.
These programming languages are more flexible and provide more possibilities (compared to PowerLanguage/EasyLanguage ). With MultiCharts .Net that is possible to send unmanaged orders-for example from one chart you can trade multiple instruments at the same time, but each symbol should be hardcoded. You can find a code example of such signals in the following thread: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=10730

We are going to implement Portfolio trading with basket trading in MultiCharts 9.0
This version is expected in the second half of this year.

Hi Henry,

Would the portfolio with basket trading have similar functions as described in:

https://www.multicharts.com/pm/viewissu ... no=MC-1423

or can you elaborate more what's planned with the "basked trading" functionality ?

That is correct, the portfolio basket trading will have most of the functions described in MC-1423.
Sorting instruments by indicator values is still being considered.
