Post From: Moving Stop Loss to Break-Even Automatically While Scaling in.

Hello,

I've been attempting to get the scale in feature to work with some of the automatic move-to-break-even functions. Just to be clear, the BE button seems to work as it should.

So using a standard one target standard bracket order, I've set the "Stop ALL" order to "Offset in Ticks Triggered" which provided for a single adjustment to the parent order B/E line; I've tried "OCO Group Triggered" (using two targets) and again received only one B/E adjustment; and finally I tried "Trail to B/E Offset Triggered" thinking I'd discovered the solution - and while the "Stop All" line moved down a few times after adding orders w/ price moving down the requisite # of ticks (I have "Trigger Offset" at 2), eventually it stopped even with price continuing to fall. I verified that it wasn't at B/E by hitting the BE button and the Stop moved down as it should.

Also, is there a way to adjust the increments/pace that the "Trail to B/E Offset Triggered" function moves the stop loss towards "B/E" other than the trigger which initiates it? I'd prefer that every time I enter a new scaled order that the B/E would adjust immediately automatically.

I've Googled what I thought was every instance of this subject being discussed but still can't figure these things out. Help! :)

Thank you!
