TOS should probably be renamed to POS but ugh.. i'm stuck with TD for various reasons
is it all possible to submit orders using RTD?
all the information I've seen until not is all about getting data and streaming it into excel but nothing is relating to submitting orders from excel to TOS. is that possible? any help would be appreciated.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I don’t like the lack of support and I think the community is small. Most importantly, from what I tried to attempt a while ago, I just don’t think it had the capability to do so bc of the language it uses. For example:
One of my strategy, has about 10 different data sources that range from fetching live data from websites and data providers, reading and writing from matlab and r studio and pulling it all into ninjatrader. I don’t think TOS could do something like that?
Anyways bc of your experience with TOS, is it possible to submit orders from excel to TOS?
Reason: I have one strategy that only trades once a month so for a long time I’ve been manually submitting this order from NT to TOS. I’d like to automated it. I was thinking about sending that order from NT to excel (which I can do) but sending it to TOS is out of my expertise. Any advice would be appreciated. Do you have any templates? I literally need to submit a market order and then a breakeven stoploss after some time. I can send 1’s and 0’s to excel so all id need in excel is
If A1= 1; send order to buy to TOS
IF A2= -1; send limit stoploss to TOS
I’d move my account to NT brokerage but I have other reasons to stay with TD
