Can I change when orders are sent in IB?
Can I change when orders are sent in IB?
Is there a way to have strategy send an order when the DOM gets to a certain price? For instance, I may want to set a stop 1 point below my order, but I do not want the stop order to actually get placed in IB till the price gets there.

Hello Sir.
You can attach an exit order with the specified amount of loss.
The order will be filled once the price will be hit.
You can drag and drop the order on the open position in DOM or you can auto attach the order (right click on the Stop Loss exit strategy).
Once you enter a position-the exit order will be attached.

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear. I want the stop order to sit on the MCDT DOM, but not on IB's servers. I want the order sent to IB's servers when the price hits. Currently, if I place a stop order on the DOM, the order is automatically transmitted to IB.

Unfrotunately that is not possible to keep the order in MC.
Once the order is placed-it is sent to the IB broker.
