Hi Jason,

If I have an automatic trading strategy / indicator which is a .lua file, could you be so kind as to explain how to actually install it on market scope?

I understand how to install custom indicators but how do I actually get the automatic part to execute?

In addition, I have my email configured correctly and I would like to receive an email alert when one of my open positions is closed, how can I do this?

Thanks.

Hi BellamyFX,

Please go to “Alerts and Trading Automation” > “New Strategy or Alert” and then select your automated strategy from the list that pops up. Then in the Parameters window for your strategy, adjust your settings and make sure the “Allow Trading” field is set to “Yes”. You should now see your strategy enabled in the Strategy Dashboard.

If you would like to receive an alert when a specified trade is closed, you can use the WATCH_TRADE alert which comes pre-installed on Trading Station Desktop.
