Can you add drop down beside ota order stop for %/$

[makincash]

I am not totally sure but I think I am finding the OTA stop market offset is inconsistent when it displays %/$.  ie not following the rules set in trading account settings.

Is it possible to add an override dropdown so we can select $/%?  To the right of the -0.05 box...

if you hit % key while cursor is in the stop field, it will switch to percent. As for rules, I would have to check how they are used here

just tried the % shows up in the box but the price above it doesn't recalculate using % is still uses the number in the box as a $ offset. Pressed tab after adding the %.

Huh? I just checked and it definitely switches the display when the % mode changes. The difference is small but still shows. Try with something like AAPL where it will be more obvious

So weird I just tried now and it worked.  It 100% didn't before.  can you change back to $ offset somehow?

I have a trade window stuck on % for the conditional order stop market.  How do I get it back to $? (Questrade trade window)

Solution: put cursor in trade window stop box and press %, which changes it back to $ offset.

y, having a more intuitive way to switch is on the todo list, but not sure what to do - needs to be compact too

Even just being able to enter $ and it changes to dollar would be more intuitive then % to change back to $. Putting $ was the first thing I tried.
