Open order quantity increment for stocks

[drmartell]

Is there a way to change the Chart Trader open order quantity up/down amount?

I can't seem to get it to change from the default of 100 share increments. I have the Chart Trader Order quantity set to 1 and the Scale quantity set to 1, but these don't seem to have an effect.

Hello drmartell,

Thank you for your post,

This can be accomplished by setting a custom Stop Limit offset. To do this, right click on the
Chart Trader toolbar > Properties. Check the box for "Predefined stop limit offset" and enter your value > Press OK.

To save the settings going forward, in the Properties window select the lower right "preset > save."

Let us know if we may assist further.

Thank you for the reply, doesn't the stop limit offset refer to price though? I am inquiring about how to increment quantity by something other than 100 for stocks.

Thank you for your reply.

My apologies for the misunderstanding. There is not a method to set the default quantity increments used for stocks.

If you would like, I can forward a note to our development team so interest in this feature is tracked for future feature consideration.

We look forward to assisting further.

I wonder if this feature will be implemented in NT8. It;d be nice to have something like a default value for increments. At the moment it is always one.
