IB problems

Quote from MiamiHurricanes:
I need to confirm, but isn't it the case that all stops/limits stay resident with IB's systems. Once tripped, they get sent out. That to me is insane, because it should result in significant slippage every time...
But they're done on a fill or kill basis. So what it results in is not just slippage but the occasional failure to execute.
So one has to compensate by using Stop Limits for entry and exit.
BTW, That's good news, Golf.
Not really good news
It was an entry order so she should have been long in the 40`s,
now there is no position.

Was the order a stop order or stop limit? Also, CAD rallied back into the teens before extending losses when the USD ripped across the board.
