Time triggered order entry

[jomek]

is it possible in NT8 to place an order with a time trigger. I would like to place an order in the market which should be trigger at a certain time e.g buy one contract FDAX at 17:35. I could only find the TIF option DAY without an option to set a specific time.

Hello jomek,

Thank you for your post. This is possible via setting up a Time-based alert and setting the Alert Action to Submit an order.

To do this, right click on the chart > Select Alerts... From the top left, select Time > FDAX 09-18 1-minute for example > Next, set the right option to Time value, then enter the needed time under General > Press OK.

In the Action section of the alert window, select "add" > Submit an order.

See the below section of our help guide for an example of a time-based alert.
