New TRADE order type: REL w/limit

Dear All

We added a new Order Type to trade based on the Relative Order from IB. In addition to a price offset from the National Best Bid/Offer (NBBO) you can also specify a Limit price.

You will find an example in the Order Type drop-down called “Relative 0.01 peg + Limit” and you can also create your own with different price offsets.

Thanks

Excellent! People looking to offer liquidity will find this very helpful. Thanks Marco!!!

Not sure how this order works and the IB documentation isn’t clear.

  • If I would like to set a Limit order the night before at 0.10 below Open price, can i use this Order Type?
  • How does port123 set the Limit price in this order type? I tried TRADing one of my portfolios with this Order Type, but it didn’t ask for a Limit?
  • Is the idea of the Limit that it sets below Market price but moves up if the Market price moves up?
