Yes, TradersPost manages all open positions in an account, regardless of whether they were opened manually or through automation. This means traders can manually enter a position and let the automated strategy handle the exit.
For example, if a strategy missed an entry but a trader wants to open the position at a similar or better price, they can manually enter the trade. When the strategy later sends an exit signal, TradersPost will recognize the open position and execute the exit as if the trade had been automated from the start.
• Match Position Sizing to Strategy Settings – Ensure the manually opened position aligns with the strategy’s rules to avoid unintended order mismatches.
• Automation Will Only Handle Exits – The automation will not recognize a manually opened trade as a strategy entry but will still execute exit signals as expected.
• Works Best for Long-Term Strategies – This method is particularly useful for longer-running strategies where the entry may have occurred days earlier.
TradersPost allows traders to manually enter a position and let automation handle the exit. As long as the position is sized correctly within strategy parameters, the system will treat it like any other open trade when executing exit signals.
