Default TF Contract

I attempted to trade the TF (mini russell) using a strategy that generates market orders. The orders get rejected and the following prompt appears:

"Rejected: GTCs must be submitted as limit or stop limit orders."

The strategy runs as expected on the SI and EMD contracts.

I do not want to use limit orders in a strategy. Perhaps it has to do with the Nybot/ Ice exchange.

What is the fix for this?

NTWolfe, which broker are you trading with? Have you tried submitting them with a setting of TIF Day?

I use Mirus Futures. I will change the order time in force to "Day."

In NT 6.5 I do not see an option to set the time in force for the orders when working in the strategy wizard. How could I change the time in force for the orders?

Hello NTWolfe,

This is set when you run the strategy. From strategies tab: Right Click > New Strategy > Time in Force is set under the Order Properties section.
