How do you code extended market limit orders? I would like my daily order strategy to be able to execute the transaction during early morning market hours, how do I code the limit buy order to be gtc + extended day?
Thanks!
Thanks!

WL7 doesn't support GTC orders. It operates by just letting a Day order get canceled and submitting the same order the next day, assuming the same signal is generated again. This keeps things alot simpler.
Is there just an extended hours buy option that is only good for the day?
Hmmm, I don't understand the question? You mean, you want the order to continue into the post market trading session?
Yes post or premarket (extended day) sessions which requires a limit order and processed. For instance TD Ameritrade premarket starts at 7 am ET and post market ends at 8 pm ET.
I see it's possible via the SEAMLESS session type in the TD API. This will have to be a FeatureRequest, because we'd want to generalize it so it could be activated and provided for any broker that supports it. Probably via a new property for the Transaction class. You can vote for it now on the bottom of the Wish List!
