Video goes through differences in the dynamic and static DOMs, why it matters, and how to submit an order using the DOM in Ninja Trader.

In another post Darrell mentions that the ICE (trading TF) only accepts stop limit orders. Is that still true? I am still struggling with deciding to use stop or stop limit orders for entries. I thought that for stop losses and take profits a stop order (reverts to market order) was preferred and for entries a stop limit could be used. However, i have read that for a trending market which one expects will continue (as opposed to reverse) that a stop order would be best for entry. I would appreciate some guidance on these issues as i plan to trade TF live this week and need to be prepared.

Thanks

Use a stop limit with offset for entries No matter what market/exchange.
