Hi. I know we can use trade only symbol to see ES and trade MES. It's not quite what I want.

I would like to trade MES based on ES prices.

Example, today (jan 3) I got filled on a stop in short at MES 3219.75. ES never traded that price.

What I wanted was to stop into a short position in MES only if ES traded 3219.75.

Is this possible?

You can do this by using a client-side stop but it is highly highly not recommended to try. Order types:

Once again, we strongly strongly avoid doing this.

The consequences are going to be much worse.
