5. Market vs Pending Execution
iMManager provides two execution modes:
- Market Execution
- Pending Order
You can switch between them using the selection buttons in the panel.
5.1. Market Execution Mode
In this mode:
- The zone is aligned with the current market price.
- Buy and Sell buttons are active.
- Spread is monitored in real time.
- Spread Filter (SF) protects against high volatility.
If the current spread exceeds your SF value:
- Buy/Sell buttons are automatically disabled.
- Trade execution is blocked.
This prevents entering trades during unstable conditions.
Market Execution mode with live spread protection. 
5.2. Pending Order Mode
In Pending mode:- You can move the zone anywhere on the chart.
- iMManager automatically determines whether the order should be:
- Stop
- Limit
You simply click:
- Buy Stop/Limit
- Sell Stop/Limit
The EA handles the correct order type automatically.
Pending Order mode with automatic order type detection.
5.3. Smart Pending → Market Switch
iMManager includes intelligent behavior:
If you preview a pending order and then move the zone across the current market price:
- Modify becomes disabled.
- Buy/Sell (Market) becomes active.
- If you execute by market:
- The pending order is automatically deleted.
This prevents conflicting orders and keeps execution clean.

9. Daily Risk Guard
The Daily Risk Guard is designed to protect your account from overtrading and excessive daily losses.
It allows you to define:

Both settings can be configured independently.
If set to 0, that limit is disabled.

- Calculated per symbol
This ensures protection even while trades are still running.

- Open trades
This prevents excessive scaling during one session.
