    From using the Demo, it looks like the Auto Stop resides on IB's servers. Is there any way to get a Stop Limit placed when a position is entered using one hotkey? The only options I see are Auto Stop, Auto Trailing Stop, and Bracket. I would like my stops on the Globex servers.

  2. No, the attached stop doesnt adjust with the limit entry order.

  4. Illiquid,

    Alot of people use Bracket Trader (I am biased I have been using it for 9 months) there is also AutoTrader and a couple of others.

    IB has a discussion board, post any questions you have regarding any 3rd party add on's to TWS under the topic
    "TWSAPI"

    I am one of the unofficial Bracket Trader support people.

    regards,
