Folks,

On AMERITRADE if you have a market or limit or trailing stop order in to protect your cap on entry in to the trade...

If the trade moves positive and then you want to QUICKLY capture your profits based on your real time analysis/judgment (let your profits run, but its time to rapidly get out), in AMERITRADE you have to click a few times to CANCEL your previous sell order that protected your capitol, and enter a new sale order...

This process of canceling one trade sale order and setting a new one is time consuming - I have seen on INFINITY (futures platform only) a much simpler point and click platform for resetting a sale order immediately, point at your price on the real time price spreadsheet and hit go! Seems awfully efficient over ameritrade??

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY TIPS OR SOLUTIONS OR ALTERNATE PLATFORMS TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE? Maybe Im not seeing something here, Ameritrade tech said they recognize it takes more time to manually cancel and click through their boxes, but they dont have an alternative.

Thanks!

if they dont have an alternative they clearly dont want to cater to scalpers, change broker mate
