Set your "Trade Window" to be an order type of "Trailing Stop-Limit". Enter the Stop price on the Main tab to be 95. On the "Set" tab set the "Primary Orders" offset for the "Stop-Limit Order Limit Offset" (at the top of the window) to be the number of ticks to give you a 1 point offset. Then when the price gets to 100, you can select the "Buy" button on the Trade window and the "Trailing Stop-Limit" order will be entered. When the price gets to 95, the Stop will be hit which will change the order to a Limit order at 1 point offset from the Stop price (so 96). As long as price stays below 96, the Limit will not fill. If the price continues to drop, the trail will move limit down to keep it at 1 point above the current price until price goes back up to fill the Limit order.
