You just set the Attached Stop Order to be a Stop-Limit order.

Here are the detailed instructions:

Hi:
I want my parent order to be stop-limit, not for attached stop in my bracket.

Currently, when I click on DOM and place a STOP parent order, it showed my parent order as STOP. I want to set this default as STOP-Limit, without go to use "Trade Window" and insert a "stop-limit" price on this window. It took too much time and effort. I want it to be "One-click" on my DOM.

Is this function avaialble now?

Thanks.

In this case, then you need to configure the Chart DOM to use Stop-Limit orders and this is documented here:

Hi there:
Thank you for the information. However, when I go to this Gobal setting for my COM setting . I did not see the availability of "stop- limit" or "Buy Market if Touched"

For Example:
Order Input above Last

Left click on bid price limit above last. I could only choose among "Ignore Input", "Buy Limit" and "Buy Stop"

================================================
My Version is 1382 and I have package of level 3.

If I update my version, Will it solve my problem?

Thank you for your help.

You are running an older version of Sierra Chart. You must update to the current version:
