Market Order exclusive cost / slippage suggestion

Postby MAtricks » 26 Jun 2013

Our newer commission settings are nice. However, I think it would make sense to implement commission, slippage, or 1 tick spread exclusive to back-tested market orders. I've used this feature in another platform and it was pretty handy.

This would allow you to back-test a limit order strategy with a market order stop and in your back-tests you wouldn't have to manually calculate the 1 tick cost of all market orders that were simulated.

This doesn't seem like a difficult request and the benefits from this feature are great.

Any updates on this one?
