How does one place an order between the spreads? If I have this code how can it be changed to do such a thing. Ex if the spreads is 18 how do we place the trade in the midlle of that like 9 or at the actual trade price. So, if the price is 90.18 and the spreads is 18. the robot should send a order should be send at 90.18 plus or minus 3 pip for slippage. does this make since?
