tradingcat Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Hi there, just signed up for Medved the other day. Been setting it up and am honestly excited at how configurable it seems. Now on to my first problem - I run a Friends and Family Advisor account, and I'm trying to configure a hotkey to split the order across the 2 accounts, while taking the PriceAtMouse as the stop loss price. I've tested splitting the first part (splitting the order across 2 accounts), and that works well. Today I added in the StopMarket order with the sell at PriceAtMouse, and it only executes on the active account I have on the chart. For the other account, the orders don't execute, and I get the error below. Screenshots attached. Any help greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Conditional orders, in secondary legs, cannot have absolute price values right now. They have to be relative to the main price. Let me investigate if that can be changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tradingcat Posted February 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Thanks for the quick reply. When you say secondary leg, what does that mean in my case? I assume you mean the second (inactive) account? Because the stop loss actually gets placed on the account in the active window that my mouse hovers over, but not the other account.

Jerry Medved Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 the market order in your hotkey is the first leg that gets executed. That is the primary. The stop order is a secondary leg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tradingcat Posted February 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 It works though. I just tried it again - here is a screenshot. Not sure why? Unless I am understanding you guys wrong. Only issue is the order doesn't execute (both legs) on the non-active account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Ok - that OTA order that you have in the hotkey - is it executed? Because that red error box would indicate that it wasnt. I will try running the same thing here will look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tradingcat Posted February 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) Yup it's definitely executed - I left it and got stopped out. I think the red error box is in reference to the orders not filling on the other account (i.e. not the one that I have the chart opened and placed the order on) Forgot to mention: I tested by setting Account 1 as the active account on the chart, and it filled orders for Account 1, but not account 2. I then set Account 2 as the active account on the chart, and it filled orders for Account 2, and not Account 1.

tradingcat Posted February 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 Just tried Jerry, I get the same error, and it still only fills on the account with the active chart I execute the order on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tradingcat Posted February 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 Hi Jerry, I ran into another problem now. Similar in that a hotkey is only executing on one account only, so will just add on to this thread. I'm trying to set up a hotkey to flatten both accounts, but when I execute it, only one account gets flat. Screenshot of hotkey setup and chart window / account view attached. Did I set up the hotkey incorrectly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted February 9, 2023 Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 please update from the link I emailed again and let me know if now fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
