Default ATM strategies: signal price instead of average entry price

Hello!

When using an ATM stop loss/profit target strategie I would like to use the signal price instead of the average entry price for calculating my stop and target.

Example:

Let's say I programmed a stop 2.00 under, and a target 4.00 above my entry price (for a long position).
I want to enter the marekt long with a stop market order, when the market hits 100.00. I get filled at 100.50.

At the moment the ATM strategie would use the filled 100.50 (=average entry price), but I would prefer my "signal price" (=100.00) as the base for the stop/target calculation.

I hope I managed to express my question clearly.

Thank in advance for all your help.

Yours sincerely

Mario

Hello Mario,

Unfortunately this is not supported.

I will forward your suggestion to our development team and ask them if they can add this to the list of future considerations for the software.

Thank you for your feedback.
