Hi, I placed a stop order as a DAY order, it has not been executed yet (which is normal.)
How would I change the TIF of this order from DAY to Good-till-Cancelled without having to cancel and replace it?
Thanks.

This is not possible to do. You must cancel the order.

Last questions:
1) what determines (for SC) when the DAY time ends to cancel the order if not executed?
2) does one get some message in the logs when the order is cancelled automatically upon DAY expiring, etc.?

1. The exchange cancels the order. Sierra Chart does not.


2. There would be an entry in the Trade Activity Log when the order is canceled.
