Buy/Sell Orders

[JerryA]

Is it possible to place a buy and a sell limit orders simultaneously?I tried to do that but I get an error message. Thanks.

Hello JerryA,

Unfortunately this is no function to submit a buy and sell order simultaneously. However you can be in a long and short position at the same time using the 'ATM Strategy Selection Mode' setting.

Here is how this is accomplished:

• Open 2 SuperDOMs and set them both to the same market
• Right click in on of the SuperDOMs and select the menu "Properties"
• Set the 'ATM Strategy selection mode' parameter to "DisplaySelectedAtmStrategyOnly"
• Repeat the last two instructions on the second SuperDOM
• Submit a buy order to open a long position in the first SuperDOM
• Submit a sell order to open a short position in the second SuperDOM

In addition to these instructions, I suggest reviewing the content available in our Online Help Guide specific to this topic.
