Easily create Profit Taker/Stop Loss bracket orders to help exit an existing position using the Exit Strategy tool. To open, right-click a position in your portfolio and from the Trade menu select Create Target/Stop Exit Bracket. Bracket orders are designed to help limit loss and protect profit by "bracketing" an order or position with two opposite-side orders that are submitted when the price of the instrument penetrates either order's trigger price.
The order quantity for the high and low side bracket orders matches the original order quantity and cannot be edited.
You can now open the Reallocate tool (used to reallocated money between a group or account's models) in the Mosaic layout from the New Window > Portfolio tools menu. This means you can now view both the Reallocate tool and your portfolio in the same window. Additionally, you can now add the Reallocate tool to a Mosaic layout as a tile, if needed.
Previously, this tool was only accessible from the Classic Layout, which allows viewing of one window at a time.
Previously, API messages above the max allowed message rate were immediately rejected by default. We have modified this behavior so that messages above the max allowed rate will now be adjusted, and paced at the max per second rate. If you prefer to have these messages instantly rejected, check the configuration API settings feature "Reject messages above maximum allowed message rate vs. applying pacing."
