Execute Orders on Data2 Subchart

Recommended Posts

Hello

 

If I want to calculate something on Data2 chart I just need to add Data2 at the end of my instruction.

 

For example

myvar=(close data1)/(close data2)

 

What I don't know is how to send an order to the underlying of data2, all my orders get executed on data1.

 

What do I have to do?

For example I have on miniRusell data1 and S&P500 on data2 on the same chart. I make some calculations with both and I'd like to buy 1 contract of S&P500.

 

cheers

OK, I've tried to state my problem in a easy way. I can't switch it.

The real think I want to do is pair trading, executing orders on data1 and data2 at once.

For example buy data1 and sellshort data2.

I know how to execute orders on data1, now I just need to know how to execute on data2

Hi And what are those orders on Easylanguage?

 

They are not so much about easy language per se as they are objects and properties in the new tool box in TS 9.0. Of the tools/objects of interest here are accounts providers, position providers and order providers.

 

Coupled with the price series providers (PSPs) they make a powerful set of tools for automating trading strategies.

Hi. You can use portfolio backtester. Add two data sources and type such a code:
