  1. In Tradestation, It seems no portfolio trading possible without having charts open, unless order objects, such as OrderTickets, used for real-time trading and can be used in RadarScreen for a list of symbols, which lot of coding skills required.

    I am looking for a way that if a simple formula in excel condition become true, it send orders to Tradestation. Something similar to to program that send orders between brokerage account and excel back and forth in a live mode. https://marketxls.com/, they don't support Tradestation.
