while im trading from the dom and chart dom im encountering incorrect market orders. if im below price and I place a sell on a specific price it's immediately filling as market. same scenario when above price. all of my settings are set as limit orders. if I place a sell above price, then the order waits until that price is triggered...and vise versa for buys. can you please assist?

When placing orders above or below the current price, not all of your entries can be Limit entries; half of them will need to be Stop entries. Go to Global Settings >> Chart DOM Settings and use the settings in the attached pic. |
