Limit order logic in chart trader - request

Drew · 10-24-2007, 08:02 PM

I have been using chart trader and it works as well for me as the DOM and takes less space. Only problem is in fast markets when I want to place a specific limit order, chart trader tries to "protect me" by not allowing the me to place a limit order inside the current price. However, I want to use a limit order so I am sure of what will get filled, even though I am placing it inside the current price. If I go outside the current price, then it may not fill. If I use a market order in a fast market, couldn't even guess what price it will fill at. If I had to use the DOM, I would want to use the static one, however don't want to pay ransom money to TT and I don't want to use up the screen real estate. Can you create a parameter for Chart trader so that it trusts that I know what type of order I want to place?

Will add that to our list of future possible enhancements.
