Hi, is there a study (or another tool) that can plot the position of Stop Loss orders on the chart during the course of a trade?
Obviously I can plot the order fills which show entry and exit but it would be useful to see the stop placement during the trade.
By extension, it would also be useful to plot the position of Take Profit limit orders along the way.
Is this possible?

The Stop and Target should be showing on your chart, just like the position line. Refer to the information in the following section, and note the first image in that section that shows those lines:

Sorry, I wasn't very clear.
I meant a Stop Loss visualisation tool for trades that have been closed - to help when doing trade review and trade management performance.
Is this sort of thing possible?

There is no built-in tool for this. You could create something through a custom study. Refer to the following for a starting place:
