Stop Limit Entry Order for Automated Trading

[rvevans]

Programmers are telling me different things. I just want to know if it is possible to place a STOP LIMIT as an entry order as part of an automated strategy program? Using as an example, a range bar. I want to go long if the range bar closes "up" and that long entry price would be the close of the range bar plus one tick.
Can this be programmed?
If anyone knows how to do it, can you let me know and let me put my programmer in touch with you.
Thanks,

Hi Rvenas,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!

The Managed approach to submit a Buy Stop Limit is

EnterLongStopLimit(Limit Price, Stop Price);

Since you did not specify a limit range, I assume it will be the same as the stop price which then you will have Close[0] + 1 * TickSize for the prices.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
