When placing a pending buy stop order at the top of a bar like an inside bar, it will trigger when the Ask price reaches that level, which means if the spread 3 pips and the price gets 2 pips away from the top of the bar and reverses, it enters the trade even though the price never broke the bar. Is there a way to get it to trigger when the Bid price reaches a certain level instead of the Ask price?
I know I could just put the entry level higher to account for spread, but the spread is always changing by a tiny amount so it wouldn't be as accurate.
