Post From: Scaling In Quantity Distribution for Multiple Target Bracket Orders

Hi Team,

I am reviewing the Scale In functionality in Sim/Replay.
I am using the "2TargetsWithCommonStop" order configuration.

It appears that as I scale into my position, the scaled in Target only updates the farthest target, rather than distributing evenly to the two targets (as the initial order does).

For example:
1st order = Buy Market @ $50.00 Qty=2, Stop $49.90 Qty=2, Target 1 $50.10 Qty=1, Target 2 $50.20 Qty=1
2nd order = Buy Market @ $50.00 Qty=2, Stop Qty=4, Target 1 Qty=1, Target 2 Qty=3
(I would have expected Target 1 and Target 2 to be updated with Qty=2 for each upon the 2nd order)

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

The only workaround I have found is to manually adjust the Target Limit order quantities using the +/- popup on the chart trading line... but this could be difficult under a fast market situation, etc.

Thankyou.
