Joe, the IB account works this way ...
LONG Example
buy (entry) at market, say, 900 and you get something like 900.25
sell (exit) at limit 910 and you'll get 910 or higher/better (if good trade
else you'll need to cancel this order)
SHORT Example
sell (entry) at market, say, 900 and you get something like 899.75
buy (exit) at limit 890 and you'll get 890 or lower/better (if good trade
else you'll need to cancel this order)
