Auto Trading

3 bytes added, 14:50, 25 April 2012
Automated execution from chart can be turned on in one of two available modes: synchronous and asynchronous:
* In '''synchronous''' mode '''[SA]''' one can see the same open market position and active orders on the chart as at broker. All orders generated by historical calculation during are wiped out from the chart when auto execution is turned on. Executed order is displayed only if it has been executed at broker and the final status of the order has been received by MultiCharts.To use synchronous mode for auto trading select '''Entries/Exits are based on the execution confirmation by the broker (Sync)'''<br> <div style="background-color: #E3FBE5;">'''Note''': Chart market position and broker market position are in synch only if no more than one chart is auto trading without any manual orders on a particular symbol connected a particular broker account, assuming that at the moment the automation was turned the broker market position was flat or, if it was not flat at broker, assigned manually on start of auto trading in MC to match it (see [[#Audio_Aler|Auto Trading|http://.er]]). If more than 1 chart is auto trading in [SA] mode and/or manual trading is used as the same time on the same symbol at broker, chart can easily get out of synch. To learn more, see [[Trading from Multiple Charts on One Instrument]].</div><br>
* In ''' asynchronous ''' mode ''' [AA] ''' the strategy on the chart starts auto trading based on the historically calculated orders and open position, displaying all generated by the script orders on chart even if an order was not executed at broker. In AA strategy on chart acts separately from broker.<br>To use asynchronous mode for auto trading select '''Entries/Exits are independent of the execution status at the broker (Async)'''
