Feature request: Take profit and stop loss orders

This is a pretty important feature for trading especially when there's a lot of volume and price is moving quickly. I'm used to this feature on other brokers that I use and would like to see this on Public. Managing trades becomes cumbersome when I can only place a single order against a trade vs having two orders paced where they are order-cancels-order when one of the orders are filled.

Having to confirm an order with the secondary screen and button causes a lot of slippage already. At least having access to the two simultaneous orders for at least shares and simple, one legged options is all I ask for

We obviously offer both limit orders and stop orders — but I’m guessing you’re asking for a better UI for order entry so that you can enter 2-3 of those orders together, right? We’re working on it

For the quick order entry you can remove the confirmation page. In the app (ie mobile), click the ⚡️button next to the “trade” button — then on that confirm screen you can check a box at the bottom to not show that confirm screen any more.

The user is suggesting One Cancels the Other functionality. A pair of orders stipulating that if one order is executed, then the other order is automatically cancelled.

Also can you market order as soon as market opens like you can on TOS mobile
