Trading dollar amount limits
« on: August 22, 2019, 04:24:55 pm »
Hello,

How Do I set a limit on the dollar amount in a trade ?.


Do I have to pay the monthly Market Data to pairtradinglab or IBK or both?.


Thank you

Hi Horacio!

To your questions:

1) There is no possibility to set an absolute limit...you can set the percent of capital allocated though
2) You only purchase IB market data

Kind regards,
Karel

Hi,

Would you be kind and let me know where I can setup that allocation?. Is that the "Allocate Account %" field in the portfolio details?. If so, that means that only that % of my account would be allocated for my portfolio?.


Regards,

Horacio
