Is there any way to easily program orders to buy a set amount (5-10 ticks) from current bid? In tradestation there was a way to program the bid buttom so you could buy at bid minus a certain set amoount (say 5 ticks). Just by hitting the buy at BID button the order went for bid -5 ticks. |

This is still not supported? I think this is the same question I have. I want to enter long at current ask price but in the case that it moves up at the moment I hit button, I’d be willing to accept a few ticks difference but not more than the offset I choose. Say 2 ticks for instance. I see there is an option to program keyboard shortcut for buy bid - 1,2 and 3 ticks and to sell ask + 1,2 and 3 ticks but I’m not sure that’s the same thing. Seems it should be buy ask + 1-3 ticks and sell bid - 1-3 ticks. I imagine this is certainly supported by now, it being a pretty basic and necessary option. Im just not seeing how to do it |

To mu knowledge you can create a customized button that buys at BID-1tick , BID-2 ticks and BID-3 ticks.... same thing with the ASK. To do this just add a customized button and search for this. However I don't know if there is a way to customize this even further, I have the same issue. |
