About Automated Execution for Strategies

Once you decide to automate a strategy to generate strategy orders, you can take the next step and enable the automated execution of the strategy-generated orders through your TradeStation account. You can monitor all strategy-generated orders in the TradeManager window. For more information, see About TradeManager.

For instructions on how to enable strategy-generated orders to trade automatically, see Enabling Automated Execution for a Strategy. You will receive an order confirmation before any strategy-generated orders are placed, unless you choose not to.

 For equities, you cannot automate execution in a strategy for the same symbol and account where there is the possibility of taking a position in the opposite direction of an already automated execution strategy.
