Currently, when you create an order with
place_stop_order()
you create a stop limit order where the limit price is equal to the stop price.This PR adds an optional argument
limit_price
toplace_stop_order()
, allowing the user to specify the limit as well as the stop price.Note that our
limit_price
argument is equivalent to the API parameterprice
, whereas ourprice
argument maps to the API parameterstop_price
. This is a little confusing but I wanted to leave the defaultprice
arg of the function unchanged to maintain backwards compatibility.
