Subject : RE: Broker Stop not working

Post #45627 - In reply to #45621

I'm not full of good ideas at the moment but there is just something about the mechanics and visibility of orders that seems to be incomplete.
As you say it is a very innovative but options that don't work as expected should be removed.
Maybe a text block that would pop up if you hovered over a chevron that showed all the stops, limits, fill or order price and duration or another place that could be accessed for a quick overview of orders and open trades. As it is now I see my resting order in IB and wonder what it is going to do after a fill. Right-clicking a chevron and opening orders is a little slow, and at this point misleading knowing that the broker stop probably won't work.
I do have two open trades though that do show the stop in IB. It was confusing to have some work and others not.
Going forward I will use the above/below prior and see how that works.
