Trailing Stop-losses

Matthew: Any plans to add a trailing stop loss feature to the system? Also, is there a way to increase the amount of idle time before being kicked out of the system. I usually login in the morning and by the time I get a trading signal, the system tells me that too much time has elapsed with no activity and I end up having to login again.

Gerardo:



Honestly, I just don’t think trailing stops will be possible anytime soon. The problem is that each open order would require checking real-time quotes, processing it, etc. Multiply that by thousands of orders… and, well, it may be a project for the indefinite future.



The time-out issue is easier to solve. I think I’ll make the time-out user-customizable. Soon.
