Hi

I shamelessly borrowed and manipulated some code from Big Mike and vantojo but I have run up against an issue.
I want to populate Chart Trader quantity with my size ( which i have programmed).

If I use
ChartControl.Controls["pnlChartTrader"].Controls["ctrChartTraderControl"].Controls["nudquantity"].Text = PosSize.ToString();
It Does populate the quanity box BUT the right click menu remains the same so I end up in a world of issues. And If Press the buttons like buy market the size is NOT what I programmed.

If anyone knows the trick to sort this out I would be more than grateful.

thanks

I had a similar issue in just using chart trader ATM's. Under chart trader properties I had to modify Stop Limit Offset to 1 from zero. Not sure how that would be programmed though.
