According to trading log, price was at 111.000, when i placed the order. But market was closed. it was 1 hr before market opening. Im not quite sure what you mean, could explain it another way ? Thanks so far! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-10-13 15:33:29

What might have happened is the open was higher than the price for a brief second which might have caused issues with the stop order. I recommend placing stop order when market opens instead, else go with the "error check" approach I mentioned. Logic: If symbol price < 111.025 then buy stop order. Get the order ID of this buy stop order (refer to Sierra Chart documentation). If symbol price > 111.025 and buy stop order ID is not filled, then cancel order and execute market order instead. |
