automated trailing stop on a pending order NOT market order

[francisfinley]

Hi,

am I right in thinking out of all the spreadbetting companies only GFT offer automated trailing stops on pending orders (also the new iii sheet - interactive markets)

IG only offer trailing stops on trades already open.

checked

OLD iii/cityindex/finspreads
Capitalspreads
ETX
ODL
tradefair
Dealing Desk
CMC Markets


?

I find MT4 trailing stops a bit confusing, but can you open trades with one, gle? Is that using an EA?

I do not very often trade with trailing stops, but I guess there is a lot of EA's around where you can input the desired trailing stop.
