Another question - How can we set the Time in force (TIF) on orders for IB using PlaceTrade() or trading preferences to be good til canceled (GTC) vs DAY?

Currently I have a work-around of manually toggling all orders one-by-one in IB TWS, but in 6.9 GTC was available in the automated orders.

Thanks!

Hi dave, it’s currently not possible to set TIF in WL8 but I can see the benefit especially when trading on weekly or higher scales. I’ll tag this with a FeatureRequest so it can be in our wish list.

I'm the only vote and agree that stop and limit orders for scales higher than Daily should automatically have a GTC TIF.

Thank you, this would help us get back to feature parity with WL 6.9.

The idea here is to automatically submit any Strategy-generated Weekly+ signals as GTC, correct?
