Congratulations on this Forum. Reading through many of the posts it appears the software is developing a loyal following.
I am interested in implementing and automating my trading systems in TradeStation / MarketScope using Lua and, if needs be, C or C++. If I can do this then I would look to bring my forex business over to FXCM.
Reading through the SDK and Lua documentation I notice a number of functions that relate to orders. I also notice in the Forum a couple of posts enquiring about automated trading and when this functionality will be available?
If I have understood the software documentation correctly, automated trading should already be possible? Or am I missing something? If it is possible would someone in the Forum already have used these functions and possiby written an automated trading system? I am interested in having a look at a basic example implementation; to understand the programming structure. The trading rules (when to buy and sell etc.) are not important. If possible I'd like some help on how to use the order functions and public method host:execute("getTradingProperty", ...)?
Thanks
