| | Can C2 allow a BTO/STO Order triggered by a Stop Loss price level that is above/below market - and have that Autotrade to IB ( via Tradebullet )?
I tried this and the trade entry was accepted in C2 but the order didn't make it to TradeBullet or IB.
Sorry if this is a known issue already in the forums.

Mike:
From your message I am not sure which specific order you are talking about, but remember this: that C2 doesn't send an order to Gen1 software while the market is closed. It waits until just a few minutes before the market opens (because otherwise some brokers or exchanges reject the order). Does this perhaps explain your situation? |

Hi Matthew. Subject above strictly addresses issue of a Stop Order to trigger OPENING a position via the BTO or STO Order format. Here is an order that was accepted in C2 Trade entry but that did not make it to Tradebullet or IB :
BTO 1 CGBZ0 Canada 10-Yr Govt Bond at stop 124.05 Cancelled 11/17/10 8:09 ET .....
where 124.05 Stop entry level was higher than current price of 123.70.
Can you comment on this issue alone please. thank you.
This other separate issue you mention - not related to this - re Orders when markets are closed - I have sent you a direct email on symbol SXFZ0 where I believe C2 has the wrong trading hours for this symbol.
Mike Holder. 2 issue are not related and are on 2 separate symbols. MH |

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
