Stock Database Manager Trading Module (SDMTrd)

The SDM Trading Module (SDMTrd) provides trader with a powerful manual or 
automated trading control center.

The following functions are available in the SDM Trading Module (SDMTrd):

• Processes TradeStationŽ Easy LanguageŽ trading signals instantly.
  All orders are actual orders sent to the floor/market/order books.
  No more simulated stop/target orders!
  Also custom trade signal can be processed - see Signals.csv for details.
• Once you are filled - instantly the stop/target orders are submitted as specified by your strategy
  so even if your connection temporarily goes down - your orders are live in the market!
• All controls and information is in a SINGLE WINDOW - no switching between windows needed.
  (Only live orders + position are shown, unless you request to see also old/completed orders)
• Manual trading with single clicks on the Buy or Short buttons
• Automated cancellation of live orders after getting flat
  (or a specified timeout/waiting period when you wait for an entry which didn't get hit)
• Realtime position true Profit/Loss display
  (in the sample below the position bought 2 and sold 1 shows as +2 -1 Long)
• Realtime bid/ask price and size updates

• Automatic logs are maintained for trading (Trade.csv), orders (Order.csv and Log.csv)
  and Positions (Positions.csv) and internal diagnostics (SDMTrd.log)

Available Trading Signals for automation:
- Enter Position at price EEE - if filled set stop loss to SSS and target to TTT
- Change Stop Loss to SSS - cancel previous StopLoss order
- Change Target to TTT - cancel previous Target order
- Exit position NOW (at market)
- advanced Exit position sequence - like:
   try sell 20 seconds at ask, then 20 seconds in between then at bid/market

"Rcvd(57)" shows that the Sell Market order(Prc=0) has been received from the broker
and is waiting for execution since 57 seconds
(market was closed, otherwise market orders are usually filled in seconds)

By default only the pending/live orders are shown (Show All Orders unchecked)

SDMTrd will watch the Signals.csv file for new trading signals to be executed:
SignalType,OrderType,Symbol,Qty,Price,StopLimit,Source
Entry,Buy,MSFT,1000,54,,Startegy_Long01
StopUpd,Sell,MSFT,1000,52,,Startegy_Long01
Exit,Sell,MSFT,1000,56,,Startegy_Long01

Your strategy in TradeStationŽ will usually generate the trading signals in Signal.csv.

You can also write your own program generating your trading signals or
use SDMSig is the SDM Signal Generator module.
