Hello all,
I made a tradingscript (indicator) in MC which sends alerts.
The next step for me is to autotrade those signals in TWS from IB.
Is it possible to do this and how? Is there reference on youtube?
Example: I send a sell-signal. I then would like to have a bracketorder in IB. A profitstop and stoploss included. My system sends an exit-alert and the trade should be killed (closed) as close the brackets (if not reached those limits ofcourse)
I found Strategy properties and so on, but how the heck can I autotrade with my own indicators using a script?
thx in advance for your support,
Cees

Hello gannlover13,
Indicators do not generate orders. Orders are generated by signals. Please see How Scripts Work for more details.
Here is how to apply a signal to your chart.
