    Question about order entry method

    I'm trying to develop an automated strategy that enters an entry order and exit order after a certain condition is met. The problem with my strategy is that I want to only place automatic entry orders and stop loss orders at significant numbers eg. 700, 800, 900. is there a way to specify an entry order that will buy at the next higher significant number and place a stop loss at the next lower significant number? An example would be that oil is trading at 12775 when my conditions are met. I would like to place a buy stop order at 12800 and a sell stop order at 12700.

    Hi Don, welcome to our forums here - there would be unfortunately no inbuild way to determine a 'signifcant' price level, you would need to custom code a way to detect this in your strategy. The order methods require the price for the order to placed at then as double value in the overloads.
