Hi
I have just opened an account with IB

What is the best method to trade, the smart routing or the on the bid ask

Also which do you prefer market or limit orders

Thanks in advance
 
i use a limit order to stop slippage entering the order when the future price hits the entry target.
 
It all depends on the instrument that you are trading. What do you intend to trade ?

Hi Paul

YM and or ES only, when I trade the markets are ususally moving fast.

I am thinking limit orders will not be filled when opening.

Will see what you say, may have to play around and see what is best.

Downloaded the standaloan and got charts working, thanks
