    I recently subscribed to PRT as they now support IB for Canadians.

    I currently use Ninjatrader for charting and orders. I trade futures, stocks, and mostly-weekly options.

    I had a strategy wrote in NT that allows me to trade options, thru IB, from a stock chart. It needs some refining but works extremely well.

    I place a line and strategy buys puts or calls at the money for the current week’s option. At the same time it places a stop and take profit. I can also scale in or out of order.

    Question then… can this be done in PRT?

    Same problem arises now with PRT as it did in NT8. I cant buy options directly from PRT using the IB API.

    As far as I know it is not possible to trade automatically option through ProOrder. BTW, ProOrder is not yet compatible with IB (should be soon though).
