I am using TWS from interactive brokers and on the booktrader, there is 'close position' button. However, if I click it, it sends a limit order which I then have to click another button to transmit. How can I change this to a market order to be submitted immediately without having to press another button for confirmation? I can of course ask IB directly, but as all of you know, their customer service is terrible so I thought I'll have better luck here. Thanks in advance!!
And the help files answer this sort of question. Also you can configure a "custom" close button to enter a marketable LMT order. I.e. an order that is below the current executable price, which is effectively a MKT order with protection.
