Would love to see more videos with these kinds of topics for IBKR Desktop since the UI varies quite drastically from TWS.
Thank you for commenting! We have passed along your suggestion to the appropriate team.
In case you didn't know, we have a collection of video lessons on our IBKR Campus website about IBKR Desktop: www.interactivebrokers.com/campus/trading-course/ibkr-desktop/
Finally an explanation that helps.
I'm confused, since, as far as I know sell limit orders are filled if the current stock price is reached the set limit price or higher than the set limit price. In case of Sell Trailing limit, once the stop limit price was triggered, the sell limit order have to take place and in case that the next stock price is higher than the limit price, the order will be filled. Limit price is under the stop price in the video. So, in video Example 2, it's said that in case stop price was triggered, however limit price wasn't reached, and the stock price had started to rise again, the trailing feature will continue to be active, trailing the stock price upwards. How won't the order be filled, inasmuch as the stop price is triggered and why the stock price have to drop to the limit price once stop price was triggered, to be filled in Example 1? It's not how sell limit orders are meant to perform.
Hello, we hope the following paragraphs help explain things further.
The trailing feature enables the limit price to become better (raise for a sell, lower for a buy) if the stock moves in the right direction after triggering the order. This is how it differs from a “plain” stop limit which would send the order once triggered.
A trailing stop limit order is designed to allow an investor to specify a limit on the maximum possible loss, without setting a limit on the maximum possible gain. A SELL trailing stop limit moves with the market price, and continually recalculates the stop trigger price at a fixed amount below the market price, based on the user-defined "trailing" amount. The limit order price is also continually recalculated based on the limit offset. As the market price rises, both the stop price and the limit price rise by the trail amount and limit offset respectively, but if the stock price falls, the stop price remains unchanged, and when the stop price is hit a limit order is submitted at the last calculated limit price. A "Buy" trailing stop limit order is the mirror image of a sell trailing stop limit, and is generally used in falling markets.

Their explanation is not correct in my opinion
" In case of Sell Trailing limit, once the stop limit price was triggered, the sell limit order have to take place and in case that the next stock price is higher than the limit price, the order will be filled"
i tried it out, and indeed... this is how it works
@IBKR can you please comment on this?
thank you for your comment, it makes sense although the
"and when the stop price is hit a limit order is submitted at the last calculated limit price. "
section is not in line with the video, in my opinion
3:39 :114 triggering the order and is eventually filled at $112 when the stop limit price is reached
Very informative, thanks!
Please we need to understand this on the mobile app, there are trail and trail limit. It's not clear.
I need to sell if the price falls below 3%. It doesn't work!! It sold my stocks randomly.
Could we have a proper video of IBKR desktop, new upgrade Version 0,12 with all the new featuring please.
How would we set a trailing stop loss to only be put in after a price increase?
For example, I buy a volatile stock for 100, fully expecting it to swing frequently between 70 and 130. I wish to automatically put in the trailing stop loss at 135, with it trailing behind by 2 dollars. If I set a trail of 2 dollars when I buy at 100, it'll likely trigger quickly with no profit, so I only want it to start trailing once the stock finally starts growing outside it's usual range, and automatically sell when it dips by 2 dollars without me constantly monitoring the prices.
Can be very helpful to automatically capture stocks that suddenly "pop off, " and will likely crash back down soon. Easy to miss if one isn't staring at that one specific stock all day, every day. I've definitely missed a few just because I slept in and want there to manually put in an order. 😅
Hello, thank you for commenting. You may be interested in a conditional order.
A conditional order is an order that will automatically be submitted or cancelled ONLY IF specified criteria for one or more defined contracts are met. You can use stocks, options, futures or security indexes to trigger a conditional order. Types of conditions include Price, Margin Cushion, Volume, Percentage Change, Daily P&L, Trade or Shortable Shares. www.interactivebrokers.com/faq?id=74586470
You can review all our available order types on our website: spr.ly/IBKR_Ordersyou
Thank you for the info!
Been trying to set a conditional order on mobile for trailing orders, but it seems the options for conditional orders disappear when selecting trailing orders, but reappear when selecting things like limit or market orders.
Still, appreciate the help, I'll look into it more.
Please publish this video usgin web portal 🙏
Thank you for the suggestion. For now, you can review the resources below.
1) www.ibkrguides.com/clientportal/trade/trade-button.htm
2) www.interactivebrokers.com/en/trading/ordertypes.php
so you cant set the values (entry, stop loss, take profit) directly on the chart itself? i am new to this and i saw the "long position" and "short position" projection, but it seems i cannot use it to place a trade directly on the chart. what should i do?
Hello, thank you for commenting. It is possible to trade directly from the charts in TWS: www.interactivebrokers.com/faq?id=31756448
To enter more advanced order types, it may be necessary to fill in information fields. This FAQ specifically covers the trailing stop limit order: www.interactivebrokers.com/faq?id=110199999
We hope these resources help!
@ so it’s not possible on the new system I think it’s called ibkr desktop pro or something ?
