Anyone know a way to use WL to issue simple buy and sell commands on a selected account ?
I have a system that I developed on another system, and I would like to use Wealth Lab to trade with it, but I can't rewrite it on WL because I dont have the same libraries and etc.
So ideally, if I could just issue buy & sell commands in WL whenever this other system issued them, that would be great. I was thinking about writing out a file somewhere to tell WL to buy or sell, but there will still be a delay if WL doesnt see the file until the bar after it was created and then it issues the buy order another bar after that. The same thing would occur for Mutexes/Critical Sections
Is there a way to issue a buy command immediately with WL ? I'm trying to avoid switching to Interactive Brokers, as I like Fidelity, so let me know.

You should be able to get at just about any DLL's methods in a Wealth-Lab Strategy - for sure .NET DLLs, but also COM and others.
Anyway, there are at least 2 ways to quickly enter orders:
1. The Manual Trade Ticket (Ctrl+T)
2. Right-Click-the-chart trading (sizing determined by the Position Sizing control)
If that's not what you're looking for, be more specific how you want WLP to interact with your other system's Alerts.

I want to be able to programmatically enter trades. I dont think any of the ways you mentioned, would allow me to do that. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks

Programmatically entering trades that is supported, can happen e.g. in this or a similar form:
Import real (historical) trades"Driving" Wealth-Lab from an outside app is not a use case and therefore is unsupported. But what kind of libraries you have on the other system, you don't have with Wealth-Lab? COM, .NET dll? What's the problem here?
