Contingent Order For Options

Hello,

Could you please confirm that you do support Contingent order for options trading? I looking to start a trading strategy whereby the underlying price is the main trigger for the options trade.

Thanks and Regards,

Deen.

Hi, Deen:



I’m afraid we do not currently support this (the ability to execute an option trade based on an underlying stock price). That is something we’ll need to try to add in the future.

Hi Matthew,

Was this feature ever implemented? I have an options trading algo that requires the stock to trade within a price range and then enter the order at the MID for the option contract.

Thanks

I absolutely want to implement this feature. It’s on the list. I promise. I just don’t know when yet. I’m hoping in the next round of changes to the hypothetical fill engine – let’s call it the next few months. Sorry I don’t have a better answer at this time. For what it’s worth, I appreciate that it’s important for C2 to support this.
