I have set up a DOM with a break-even button set to "Trade Move Stop to Break Even". When I activate that button the it either moves the stop off the visible DOM or closes the position altogether. Can you tell me what I am doing incorrectly? Thank you. |

There is an offset that is applied to the Move to BreakEven. Refer to the following: Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Set >> Move to BE Offset You probably want to set this to 0 to start and ensure that the Move to BE option works as expected.

On my trade window, the Move to BE Offset is set to 0. I tried setting it to 1, no change. It moves it to 38.00. See enclosure. This is acting as if the "Move to BE Offset" was a high negative number as it goes way off screen. I am on 2439 by the way. |

Ok, this is the chartbook I use, it supports the DOM.

We do see a problem with this and we are looking into the cause and will resolve. The problem relates to this new requested feature variable: AlwaysUsePositionAveragePriceForReferencePriceForBreakEvenCommand It did not support, a chart Price Multiplier other than 1.

The default Symbol Settings are correct. There is no issue there. The issue is resolved. Update to the latest prerelease.
