Hello,

i'm curious how stop orders will be simulated within the SIM mode of NT. It is triggered at the stop price but the execution price depends on the offered Bids/Asks and the prior stop orders in the queue (at the same stop price).

Has anybody a good overview / link to this issue (especially in thin markets)?

Regards,
Koepisch

Stop-orders become Market-orders, so there in no queue

You can choose market or limit on your stop. The sim version SEEMS to act like one would expect a real trade to fill. For example, sometimes your limit (profit limit in this example) gets touched triggering your trailing stop to move but you still don't get a fill on the profit target. Sorry I can't tell you more.
