Step 6 in the instructions here explain how to use a Stop-Limit order on the Chart/Trade DOM: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ChartTrading.html#ChartDOM Although you have said that you already know this. In your ChartDOM defaults you have 'right click in Buy column' and 'right click in Sell column' to place a Limit Order, but these just default to placing a Market Order. So why have this option? This is an incorrect conclusion on your part. Limit orders are being placed and you should know that they are going to fill right away at the market with what you are doing. Our recommendation for what you want is to set up another Chart/Trade DOM configured to to submit Stop-Limit orders and use that when necessary.
