Stop Orders and commissions

[VinnyB]

Still on Demo...going live next week:

Is the middle mouse button still the only way to add a stop order if you didn't already create a pre-defined bracket?

If so, guess that means that any logitech software needs to be killed on startup.

Are commissions still not calculated during intraday sessions?

Hello,

1- You do have the option to change the middle click functionality if right click>Properties>Middel mouse button.

2- We suggest that all programs that work with NT be started up after NT is open, but this will depend on the software you are using.

3- What you broker reports to you is determined by your broker. However you can include commissions in your performance reporting:

Thanks Ben.

Actually my question is:

Is there any way to enter buy or sell stops OTHER than the middle mouse button on the free version?

The option you are pointing to seems to only change the middle mouse button's ability enter either stop market or stop limit.

Commission question was about calculating intraday P&L with commissions like with the sim. Can I set the LIVE software to deduct commissions while intraday trading?

Thank you,
V.

Hello,

There is no live version or free version of the software, there is only live and free licenses. Live licenses allow you to trade live. That is the only difference.

Therefore the functionality you have in sim is the same other than the ability to place a live trade of course.

Middle mouse botton is the only way to place these orders in the DOM.

You can't alter the P and L because it is streammed from your broker directly.
