Hello,

Does OmniPilot override to using TradePlan default, instead of the Order Block, TradePlan found in the strategies ?

I need to assign specific Exits to each Futures & Forex symbols set in POINTS as implemented in strategies than run it in OP, but find OP uses only the defaulted TradePlan and overrides the Exit found in the OT strategy block.

Any work-around or solution ? Thanks.

I'll use the RT Trader Pilot script as an example.

In the Settings tab, there's a Trade Plan dropdown. You can select the Trade Plan to use there & it will use it. In that dropdown there's also a selection for "(OmniTrader)". If that is selected OT's default Trade Plan settings are implemented...

OT will use the Trade Plan that is marked as the default Trade Plan unless "Always use trade plan from strategy if a signal is present" is enabled. If that is enabled under Edit/Trade Plans, the Trade Plan that is in an individual strategy will be used whenever that strategy generates a signal. If the current signal comes from a strategy that has no trade plan, then OT goes back to the default TP.
