Hi Sierra Chart. I am trading on SC with an atm on the DOM. My data provider is SC, my broker is APEX (Rithmic.) The atm is set to create a stop I can manually trail when I hit a certain profit. Is there a way to create a stop that trails "on the fly" in the DOM? A few times I have accidentally closed my stop and wanted to create a stop that I could trail while I was in the trade. Thanks!

A Trailing Stop is available as an Order Type, along with a few other options similar to it (such as a Step Trailing Stop). Refer to the following and the items below it:
Order Types: Trailing Stop

To actually put that Stop in associated with the parent order, you would need to use one of the "Send Attached Orders by Position/Price" order types. Refer to the following:
Order Types: Send Attached Orders - Position/Price
