This is certainly supportive:
For example:
1. I place a Long trade (preferably with No Stop and No Target*) at Price Point 100.
2. Price goes Short by 10 Ticks, at which point I place another Long trade at Price Point 90.
3. I now have 2 Long trades, one at PP90, the other at PP100.
4. Price moves back up 10 Ticks to PP100 to break even with trade 1, and trade 2 gives 10 Ticks profit.

But you cannot have a long and short position in the same trade account for the same symbol at the same time. You need to separate trading accounts for that, one for each position.
