Quick question, I can't seem to figure out how to manually put a sell limit or buy limit order that's above the price on the Sierra dom or chart when I have chart trading turned on or just in trading off of the dom. So let's say I buy 1 micro contract at the current price of 13500 of the NQ. I then want to put a sell stop limit at 13600, meaning that the sell stop limit will close out the position. It won't let me if I right-click on the dom or the chart and it has an error that says it's rejected due to a sell stop must be below the current price. That doesn't seem right to me as I'm live trading because I can do it when I'm sim trading any help would be greatly appreciated. I also figured out how to do it with brackets, but I want to be able to do it manually.

Thank you.
