Hi list,

90% trades I enter are executed when I'm not behind PC.
IB allows all kind of entry orders (market, limit, bracket, etc)
But what happens whit the market when teh trade is opened?
I wish I knew :-)
So sometimes my positions are 'unprotected' by a stoploss for half a day.
I've been bitten by that before....
So I want some tool that monitors my executions.
When the position is opened it should set a stop.
That's the main thing I'm looking for.
But more fancy things like if XYZ drops below $ then close position ABC.
Or if profit is $ then sell 1/3

Thanks in advance for the help,
Tony.
