Settings Overview
There we define the symbol for which we are defining settings. Symbol would be the same as what is coming from TradingView.
We can configure entry order type as Market or Limit order. In case of Limit order, it would place the Limit order for the price which would come from TradingView.
In case you don’t pass quantity from the alert, it would take trade based on whatever quantity you configured there.
There we define the TradingView symbol that the Tradovate trade needs to be placed.
You enter a value in absolute ticks, and if you check stop loss in percentage, then it would place it in percentage based on entry price.
You enter a value in absolute ticks, and if you check take profit in percentage, then it would place it in percentage based on entry price.
This is useful for Limit orders. You can specify the number of ticks above/below the price which comes from the alert. For example: If a Buy alert of NQ is at 17500 and you specify 10, then your entry Limit order would be placed at 17500 + (10 × 0.25) = 17502.25. If you specify -10, then the Limit order would be placed at 17500 + (-10 × 0.25) = 17497.75.
