Is the 'Attached Order Reward Risk when Modifying' a new Chart Trade Setting? Is there any documentation on how this r/r is calculated?

Yes, this is a relatively new setting. We have not updated the documentation for it yet.

The Ratio itself is a straightforward calculation of the "Profit" of the Target divided by the "Loss" of the "Stop".

Thanks! How does it handle the calculation when the stop is moved into profit? The numbers I'm seeing dont really make sense.

It uses the exact same calculation, although we should classify the values as being the absolute values of the Profit/Loss displayed for the Target and the Stop.

In other words, you will have the largest Reward to Risk ratio when the Stop is one tick away from the Position Average Price. When it matches exactly, the R/R will show as "Infinity". Then if the Stop continues to move upwards into profit, then R/R ratio will go back down.
