Please take a look at the attached two screenshots - each showing an open position on crude. In both screenshots you can see that my Stop Losses are getting executed as "Stop Limit" orders. Also, it seems that the default "limit" price of the "Stop Limit" order is 20 ticks from the stop - irrespective of the "Stop Loss" or "Target Size" I set in the ATM.
Question 1: How is the "limit" size of the "Stop Limit" order being determined, is it different for each market?
Question 2: Where can I change the limit size of the "Stop Limit" order?
Question 3: What order type(s) could I use so that "if price hits my stop just get me out of the market immediately"?
Question 4: How do I then change the order type of my "Stop Loss" ? At the moment the way I submit my orders is I select the ATM in the chart trader, then I right click the chart and then click, for instance, "Buy Limit 2 @ 28.11" - see attached place_ATM_order.png
Thank-you once again for the continued support,
Michelle
