Post From: Need a Chart DOM tweak to support CTS server side MIT

i have tested this MIT setting suggestion. unfortunately, the behavior with that setting also effects below the market buys. this causes slippage on futures when the desired behavior is a limit order.

I have four common order scenarios. Since i sometime prefer to be 'swept into momentum', i use stops to enter those trades. With the current structure, i am required to hand enter a MIT order in the tradedom for those times i want to use server side stop entry brackets. I really appreciate the work being done to improve safety via server brackets, but for CTS customers, this behavior only protects us on our limit entry orders. i recognize most retail traders dont use stop entries, but i would ask that you look at the four entry scenarios below and consider how to enable painless server side brackets from the tradedom within the constraints of our brokers design.

BUY LIMIT below current price
BUY STOP above current price
SELL LIMIT above current price
SELL STOP below current price
