First thing, if you want your Stop Limit to be set at the price at which you are setting it, then set the Stop-Limit Order Limit Offset to 0 for both the Primary Orders and Attached. Refer to the following:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Set >> Stop-Limit Order Limit Offset

Then, you state that you "click in the DOM to BUY at a higher price than current". Therefore, you would need to have set your Trade >> Chart DOM Settings >> Left Click on Buy Colum Above Last or Right Click on Buy Column Above Last to be the Buy Stop Limit. Refer to the following:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Chart DOM Settings

Otherwise, you would be entering whatever order is defined for those settings.

Or, you could enter the order buy setting the Stop price on the Trade Window and select the Buy button.
