Post From: How to initiate a Trailing Stop n ticks from market?

With a Trading DOM chart and its Trade Window, I want to initiate a Trailing Stop with an offset of n ticks from the current market price, plus an attached child order, which is also a Trailing Stop order (but of course in the other direction).

I can set
Global Settings >> Chart DOM Settings >> Order Types >> Right Click on Buy Column Above Last = Buy Trailing Stop
but in a fast moving market this is an awkward approach and will almost never achieve the intended offset.

I can also use
Trade Window >> Main >> Send Attached Orders-Position
with
>> Targets >> Stop: Trailing Stop and >> Stop Offset: n
but I could not figure out how to add another child order in the opposite direction to that.

So, is it possible at all to configure the intended 'Trailing Stop n ticks from market with child order Trailing Stop in opposite direction'?
