Trigger all pending order on bid price/ chart price
15 Aug 2020, 19:57


I would like an option to trigger all pending order on bid price.

Why?

It would save time for traders because we don't have to calculate spread buffer anymore into our pending order when placing orders.

This would save frustration on buy limit not triggered, buy stop triggered without chart price touching the pending order, sell stoploss triggered without having chart price touches the stoploss, or sell profit not filled eventhough chart price touches the TP.

This is a much needed aspect for any trader that is putting orders on the chart. Since he looks at the chart to pinpoint where the orders should be placed, it would make sense that all orders (entry, stop loss and take profit) are executed by the price on the chart (bid price). 

Currently, the spread needs to be taken into account any time an order is put on the chart.
