Description

Sirs,
I would request the ability to designate stop orders in exit strategies attached to a DOM as simulated volume stops. This way the stop resides on the client computer and triggers only when a certain price AND a volume trigger happens. This feature is in Ninja. It is very useful in manually scalping markets that are not very heavy in volume, where one wants an automatic stop, yet the existance of such stop can adversely influence behaviour of other participants. The volume trigger is an addition that helps staying in the trade in case too few contracts were actually traded in the trigger price. Trading futures for many years I found this feature very useful. Better description can be found in Ninja's docs.
Thanks for considering it.
Best,
