    Does anyone know of a brokerage that allows the preprogramming of mutual fund trades? For example, let's say I want to sell on a specific date in the future, but I will be away from my computer during that time. What I am looking for is a brokerage that will allow something similar to Ameritrade's "Trade Triggers" that will allow me to preprogram the sell order weeks in advance and then when the date comes the fund is sold automatically.
     
  2. ib does it trough simple alerts and trade initiations based on those alerts..

    I use the IB feature for stocks, but they don't offer mutual funds.
