Scale Orders

The Scale tab on the Order Ticket will only be active if the order type is a limit or relative order. Note that transmitted scale orders can be viewed from the order ticket, but cannot be modified.

Scale orders are designed to help prevent larger sized trades from being subject to  increasingly deteriorating prices by scaling your order into smaller, incrementally priced components based on user-specified price and size instructions.  In addition to scaling your order, you can also define a profit offset amount which instructs TWS to automatically submit opposite-side profit taking orders against the individual components of the original order.
