Hello Myst,

I have a couple of questions regarding the current X_DEV spreadsheet. I'm trying to figure out how to utilize it for actual trading. I understand that I need to copy the formulas down to a new row, but I am unclear on how to determine the limit order amounts to place with my broker. It seems I need to enter values in columns S,T and U (close, high, and low) to get a signals. Should the close price be the midpoint between the high and low? When I change the close, it changes the buy/sell values. Could you tell me what buy and sell amounts you get for your next order on qlgc, that way I can check against what I got (buy 47 shares @ $38, sell 57 shares @ $56). Round numbers are fine.

Also, I assume GTC orders are not a good idea to use with this system because the moving averages change every day based on the high/low close data. Do you use day limit orders? Thanks for your help.
