Simulated Orders

[snaphook]

I have looked at help for simulated orders. I think they only apply to entry stop orders and not Target or Stop Loss orders.

Once the Buy Stop order is filled in ATM, will the Stop Loss and Target orders be simulated or transmitted immediately?

Also, how does one set up a trade, in ATM, such as in the:

Hi Snap,

You can have simulated orders on stop entries and stop losses.

Once the Buy Stop order is filled in ATM, will the Stop Loss and Target orders be simulated or transmitted immediately?

Target orders are always submitted immediately. For ATM stop losses, simulated orders are enabled after first defining a volume trigger in the stop strategy section.

Improved limit price from the stop price is placed using a negative offset. If using the Superdom, middle click at a particular price level and then type in a negative number there. These types of orders will always be simulated.

Ahhh, I had apparently overridden that in the properties where the SL offset had been set to 0.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Yes, that would do it. Offset of 0 means no limit input when you place the stoplimit order.
