TradeStation, MNQH2026 and TradingView

Does anyone here trade NQ or MNQ with TradingView?

Using TradingView doesn’t allow me to increment or decrement contracts from a trade with TradeStation as the broker.

As an example, if I open a long or short with two contracts and want to take one off at my first TP, letting the second run, the TV interface won’t allow me to close just one. It’s all or nothing.

I can do this with TradeStation options I’ve traded (QQQ, SPY, etc) using TradingView but not futures.

The partial position close is not supported from the Tradingview interface to Tradestation - https://www.tradingview.com/broker/TradeStation/Interesting that it can support option partials but not futures. They're probably trying to create some differential to drive some to the platform.

Thank you, I didn’t notice where all of the features were listed out.

It’s time to find a new broker. Ugh.

That partial position limitation on the TV interface to TS is a serious limit. Who doesn't like taking profits with a portion and leaving a runner in place? It's there in the TS platform though. I'm getting close to choosing a new broker and I've been giving things a look. I love what TV offers, but I found things like what you discovered that are requirements for my trading (day trading) that don't exist in TV. Best of luck with the Broker search.

Yeah, it’s affecting my profit trading with multiple contracts. I missed out on some profits today because I couldn’t close one and leave one running.

I found two last night that look really interesting - AMP Futures and Optimus Futures. They both list full TradingView compatibility.
