Option How it works Default
Local The terminal watches the price itself and sends a market order when it is reached. Works only while the terminal is running and connected.
Exchange A conditional order is placed on the exchange. Triggers even if the terminal is off. Yes

In local mode closing the terminal, losing the connection or a frozen computer leaves the position unprotected.

Method How it is calculated Default
Dynamic Volume-weighted average, as on the exchange. Recalculated when adding, unchanged on partial close. Yes
FIFO First in, first out: on partial close the earliest lots are closed.
LIFO Last in, first out: the latest lots are closed.
Fixed The average is fixed at the first entry price and does not change when adding.

Below the list there is a worked example on the same trades for all four methods: average, Realized and Unrealized PnL.
