Post From: Triggered Limit

I'm specifically trying to use the Triggered Limit order, but it won't work the way I want it to. I'm including a picture and maybe you can try it and see if it's just something wrong with my software, but I want to short after a higher price has been achieved (Trigger) my short would be below the trigger price. Currently the only thing SC will let me do is create a limit order in the direction of the trigger (IE if price has to approaches the trigger from below, then the limit order must be a buy order. If price approaches the trigger from above, the limit can only be a sell order) I think this is because the system only pairs buy triggers with buy orders and sell triggers with sell orders. There's actually no reason for this restriction. You should be able to pair buy triggers with sell orders and vice versa.
