Hi John I came across some other posts about this and i read a little the documentation and i see that to accomplish this auto move to BE i have to set 2 targets or 2 stops . However each target or stop order is taken as 1 contract so for 2 targets i have to enter with 2 contracts. All my trades are for just 1 contract. How can i have an auto move to BE in this situation? |

This is definitely not the case. There may be examples that use a quantity of 2 to explain a more complex situation, but you can definitely use the "Move to Breakeven" option for a single stop with a quantity of 1. If you have an issue setting this up, then let us know. Although refer to the following first, note that it is also a more complex setup than what you need: Attached Orders: Target with Move to Breakeven and Trail Stop Example For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
