Sorry deleted my post because I realized I forgot something really obvious.

Hello TheNomadicAspie,

Thank you for your post.

Buy limit orders cannot be placed above the market, as a buy limit order will be filled at the specified price or lower. Buy stop market and buy stop limit orders may be placed above the market.

To place a stop limit order with your ATM Strategy attached;

1. Open your order entry window
2. Select stop limit as the 'Type'
3. Set your limit price
4. Set your stop price (offset)
5. Select your ATM Strategy template from the 'ATM Strategy' drop down
6. Select the 'Buy' button

This process will differ slightly from one window to another but retains the same basic steps. In a SuperDOM, for instance, you may place a stop limit order by middle-mouse clicking your price point above the market on the buy side of the price ladder. Once the pending entry order has been filled, the attached ATM Strategy will trigger and place your exit orders.

Please let me know if you'd like additional assistance with setting your ATM Strategy parameters.
