Order Limits

It's important for limit orders to have the option of setting a stop loss immediately when the order is placed, rather than only when the market reaches and activates the order. This feature is crucial for enabling risk management even before entering the trade. In tradingview this possibility is already enable.

    Option to toggle on/off contract limits for resting orders

    Situation: The market is trading in a well defined range. In such conditions, I like to place limit entries at the top and bottom of a range. In a well defined range I also like to trade at or near max size.

    If I place a limit entry and stop-market exit at the top of the range in max size, the contract limits on the platform will not allow me to place an opposing set of orders at the bottom of the range.

    There are situations like this where a trader might want to place more orders than the contract limits, knowing that they won't all fill at once.

    A toggle to turn this limit off is risky, and should come with a warning, but I want to have this option in the platform.

    This option should not affect the position size limit.

      How is this not a thing? Every platform has this function because it’s Essential! With TopStepX, we can’t put in Limit orders on different Symbols and walk away. Relying on a one-bracket-fits-all settings isn’t cutting it. EX: If I want a Limit on NQ with 1 Mini and a $400 SL and $800 TP I should be able to Right-Click on the chart, choose the Limit Order, then drag TP/SL right on the chart like I can with any Market Order. Then do the same for GC and 3 Micros for a $200 SL and $400 TP. So I could now have 2 Limit orders on two different symbols.
      I mean - this should’ve been completed before launch!
      Just check out Quantower for a GREAT template to follow. Inventing new ways of doing things is just causing headaches. :(

    BANGER IDEA (EVERYONE PLEASE SUPPORT THIS)

    So i was looking at the chats this mornings and realized on the limit orders we can’t really adjust the risk, its just a white line limit order. On Trading view, you are able to adjust the stop loss, and the take profit before actually confirming the order. Top step please update the limit order line allowing users to have full control of there limit orders. Yes we can go to the risk settings and change it, however it would make the experience better being able to drag the lines and confirm the entry.
