    Strategy Builder - Make positions Market instead of limit?

    Is there a way to make entries Market entries instead of Limit in the Strategy automation?

    Hello MatthewLesko,

    When using the builder you can use market orders. To use market orders as an action select "Enter long position" or "Enter short position".

    I look forward to being of further assistance.

      Hi Jesse,

      Right now I have it selected to "Enter long position" and it sets a Sell Limit for my profit target. So I'm not sure if I adjust that in the "Do the following" actions or somewhere else.

        The issue I'm seeing is I don't see a way to make the Sell/profit target a MIT:

          Hello MatthewLesko,

          MIT orders can only be configured as an action of a condition. You would not use targets if you plan to use an MIT exit from the builder. As an action you can use Exit Long/Short by market if touched. The Stops and target page otherwise will only have non market based order types.

          I look forward to being of further assistance.
