You must have the Input for "Cancel All Working Orders on Exit" set to "Yes" for your Spreadsheet System for Trading. Otherwise, if this is set to "No", then if you have working Stop orders, a true value for the "Buy Exit" would not allow you to actually exit any positions. This is due to the lack of a connection between using the "Entry/Exit" options on the Spreadsheet and the working orders on the chart. In the end, there is not a way to do what you are wanting to do, at least in the way you are wanting to do it. As noted above, you are really wanting an OCO connection between the Spreadsheet Exit column and the working orders, which does not exist. What you need to do is expand your Buy Exit to cover the Stop scenarios as well as the Target scenarios.
