stop limit orders

Hello:

My orders are cleared through transact.
They indicate they do not accept stop limit orders.
If I place a stop limit order from the chart trading mode in Sierra charts, is part of the stop limit order held locally by my PC so that when the stop portion of the order is hit a limit order is then sent to the Transact server. Thus simulating a stop limit order.

I want to use a stop limit order in real trading to help eliminate slippage and get better fills. Is there a different type of order that transact accepts that I can use in Sierra charts.

Thanks

Transact definitely supports Stop-Limit orders. You can use that order type:
