Newbie First Steps Syntax query

  I am looking to trade using an API set up.

  I can program and have written my application in Visual Basic and tested it on Excel historical data.

  What is the syntax in ProRealTime to program a sell limit order?

  Eg

  If GBP/USD goes up 10 pips Then

  Sell x lots of GBP/USD

  Endif

  Thank you

  Actually SELL is used to EXIT a Long trade.

  If by SELL you mean entering a Short position, then SELLSHORT should be used, instead.
