The video below demonstrates an OptionsX setup, with the StrategiesMonitor system, to trade options contracts for any TradeStation strategy, even if the code is locked. In the particular setup, long strategy signals are executed with Calls and short strategy signals are executed with Puts.

Setup is explained here:

Notice that in the image, I’ve circled the Put contract that was traded by the lower chart. The Put contract selected, can be seen in the RadarScreen window. It was the intended long Put position, 1 strike level in the money with an expiration date 3 weeks forward.

The workspace is available for use with an OptionsX trial or subscription. You can download the workspace here: TA_OptionsX_opStratigiesMonitor_Calls(L)&Puts(S)_WedWeeklys(1itm3xo).tsw
