Hello,

Please right click the Strategies tab>New Strategy in the Control Center and look at the Order Properties. Change Set Order quantity and you will see the different settings and options.

Ben, i also looked at this. In the control center, under teh tab "strategies" right clicking on the strategy that is green (running) gives a drop down menu. That menu does not have anything about order type or quantity. Clicking new strategy will just bring up the strategy menu where you can choose a new strategy. So, I am not sure if i understand what you advised in this thread.

Hello,

Right click the grey area (not a strategy) in the Strategy tab, then select "New Strategy...", then look at the bottom for "Set order quantity" and change this setting. A new field will appear for "by default quantity" where you can enter the Default quantity value.

In the control center, i click "strategies" tab. It shows various strategies in the left column. I don't know what you mean by grey area. The blank area below the title bar does not do anything. The strategy that is running is highlighted. Clicking any area in that row brings up the same menu in which clicking the "new strategy" brings up the strategy box.
