is it possible to create a program within esignal to place automatic orders?

This feature is not supported by the eSignal Desktop API.

Greetings,

I've accomplished this with two seperate programs. Bracket Trader or Trade Bullet. I dont think were allowed to post links on the forum, but you can do a Google search and find both with ease.

Basically you create a signal file in your efs, ex:

var f = new File("Trading.txt");

And those programs read the signal file and execute the trade. It works suprisingly well. Each signal has a unique time stamp so they only get executed once.

P.S. Both those programs are for Interactive Brokers.

P.P.S. This is my 69th post. hehe

The firm I am with has the ability to automate Signals/Systems written in either eSignal or Tradestation and executed through an in-house program our programmers have recently completed.
