Trade Ticket window and Limit field


gnc

Recommended Posts

For pre and after market, I usually set Trade Ticket to "Stop Limit" in Accounts, sometimes comes ok, with 2 field "Stop" and "Limit",

but sometimes only with "Stop", while instead of "Limit" shows "Est".

What's the catch?

Btw, cannot reproduce it every time.

Just restarted MT and now, I can reproduce it almost every time.

Only thing I changed in Settings > Accounts > Price > "Bracket Low Pts" = 0.2

And current AM UXIN price is 1.31, which shows as value next to label "Est" $131.00"

And "Stop" shows $1.11, which calculated correctly, but it should be in "Limit" filed.

Probably has nothing to do with this, but I am able to reproduce this now when market is closed.

 ok, this only happens IF:
1) you using a compact trade ticket

2) your default order type is STOP LIMIT

3) you do not have a trade ticket open so when you go to trade, it opens a new one and defaults the order type. 

if you were to then change the order type to something else and switch back to STOP LIMIT, it shows correctly. will fix

Yes, it works now, but have another related issue:

Last price: $1.49

Settings > Accounts Order Settings > Def. Order Type: "Stop Limit"

1.Settings > Accounts > Price > Nothing checked + all set to "0"
Open TT window
Result: STP and Limit: $1.49. That's OK

2.Settings > Accounts > Price > "Peg Offse…" : 0.10,  "Always Price Peg" checked
Open TT window
Result: STP and Limit: $1.39. That's OK

3.Settings > Accounts > Price > "Peg Offse…" : 0.10 , "Bracket Low" : 1,  "Always Price Peg" UN-checked
Open TT window
Result: "STP" : 0.75 and "Limit" :1.49


Where $0.75 in STP comes from?
