Anyway to change the quantity in an options combo order from 1/1/1/1 to 1/1/2/2?

  1. Hi all. I want to do a combo order with 4 legs. But under multiplier (quantity) I have to submit it in 100 (or 1 contract). So when I want to submit 100/100/200/200 I cannot alter it from 100/100/100/100. The field won't allow for an edit...thanks[​IMG]

    Change the ratio column based on your needs per contract in the combo.

    You change the ratio to "2" for the 3rd and 4th legs and keep the "1" right next to "Place order". And no there is no way to save a combo template. You have to create it right from scratch every single time you need to trade it.
