Good Morning!

In this case, when I put in a GTC order, it gets filled as a DAY order.

Please see the attached .jpg file for a full description of the issue.

I've noticed that this problem happens in some cases and not in others. For example, when putting in a fresh order, the original BUY or SELL is usually set as GTC, but the stops go in as DAY.

Perhaps this is by design, but I'd like to be able to run these strategies over a multi-day period.

Thanks for your ongoing help!

You are confusing entry order with stops/targets. Please see the Settings Manager, there is an option for stop loss/target orders for making them DAY/GTC.

Thanks -

I figured since I found a bug I was entitled to one stupid question!
