pats...stop order executing as market order

Discussion in 'Trading Software' started by chiguy, Jun 6, 2006.

  1. it happened yesterday and i figured i left clicked instead of right clicked to place a stop order in the ymm6...

    today i did the same thing but i made sure i right clicked to enter a stop and it placed a market order...

    my broker is investigating but a word of warning or solace to others that are using pats/jtrader
     
  2. I thought that trade platform could only be viewed at the Smithsonian - :)
     
  3. ouch...

    ok what should i use...
     
  4. they are getting a new exhibit ready for my platform - Trademaven - LOL! :D


    I think I am going back to Xtrader myself - researching all my options right now.
     
  5. Do you place the stop order in DOM? I've never done that.
     
  6. Chi - what products are you trading?
     
  7. if you right click on a price it will place a stop order for you...

    turns out that the settings in my account were not set quite correctly and hopefully my issues should...be resolved

    i mostly trade the cbot dow...openings and such...

    once and a while i will trade the emini spu...

    i mostly trade equities...and options
     
  8. let me know what you find out...

    thanks in advance...
     

  9. Which version are you using?
    The version 6.2.x is able to manage the CBOT native stop orders effectively.
     
  10. i am using according to the about tab version 2.8.3 - 5.5 private build...i clear o'connor and this is whats available...

    however they made some changes today to enable native stops on cbot's server...

    an oversite on their part...oops
