Fading the e-Mini using StopLimit on Patsystems

[marj.g]

I just recently started using NT with a Patsystems broker.

Today, I tried to put in a StopLimit SELL order 3 ticks above the current Ask price to "fade" the retracement while in an open position.

NT gave me an Order Rejected message. The message said a stop order has to be at or below the market price.

Is this a limitation with Patsystems? Or with NT? Because I never had this problem with IB before. And I do this all the time.

What you want to do is put in a LIMIT sell 3 ticks above the market. Stop order to sell above the market is for sure an invalid order.
