Then if I click on NT8 chart and press CTRL+Numpad0, it will execute the Buy order on NT8.Įach platform forces the chart to be clicked on first to become "active" and only then will it accept the macro sequence.

The problem I seem to be running into is that it will only execute the macro on whatever chart that has been clicked on to "bring it to the front" in Windows (Running Windows 8.1). (This would not be the case with the dedicated trading keyboard - each platform would get its own unique macro sequence for each task but the 3 unique macros would be bound to the same key press). I've been trying to test the concept using the current keyboard I have (Roccat MK Pro) and setup the same macro key sequence (Buy Market = CTRL+Numpad0) in Sierra Charts and (Buy Market = CTRL+Numpad0) in Ninjatrader 8.

The software for the keyboard ( ) allows "layering" (Multiple macros) on the same key. Then I only need to closely watch one screen and it will have the same order entry price levels showing as the LIVE order. So I started looking around for some option that would allow a macro button solution so that when I entered a live trade on (2) Sierra Charts (LIVE), that same order would be entered as a SIM trade on (1) Sierra Charts (SIM) and (3) NT8 (SIM) and show the same order price levels on the Jigsaw DOM as the order price levels on the live trade on Sierra Charts that is executing the live trade to the broker.

I've been executing on (2) Sierra Charts (LIVE) but I'm finding it difficult when scalping to track the exact price level of my live order entry and stop price level (that's on SC) while looking at the Jigsaw DOM on NT. I've switch the majority of my trading over to Sierra Charts but I've had to keep NT for some 3rd party add ons that I can't find on any other platform which I use to find entries/exits.

My issue is that I'm trying to see if it can function as I need if I try and setup a trading keyboard (. I'm completely novice at any of this and need some help to know if the following can be automated with macros and hopefully some pointers in how I should go about learning to do it if its possible.Īpplication - Futures Trading platforms that support the use of macros.
