ATM Stop LImit Orders

[sgordet]

Using Chart Trader, if I use my mouse to enter a limit order, my order immediately appears. If I use my mouse to enter a stop limit order, I'm confronted with an additional step, requiring me to to "check" or modify the order quantity. Can I remove this addtional step for stop limit orders?

Hello sgordet,

Thanks for your post.

You will need to set a default value for this box in the Chart Trader properties (right click in the Chart Trader) then find and check the box next to Predefined stop limit offset. Then enter a value that you would like to use next to "Predefined stop limit offset value". This option sets the offset the limit price is away from the stop price for entry/exit stop-limit orders.
