Is it possible to have a button to reverse a position to a fixed set quantity? For eg: if I am long 5 contracts and I want to reverse it to short with 1 contract. So, Instead of having to manually change the quantity and executing a short order for 6 qty, a button (or an order type) that simply reverses the position to a fixed qty? |

The following setting gives you what you are wanting: Global Trade Settings Windows: Position Reverse Method (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> General >> Order Entry) Set this to "Set Order Quantity" and then you set the quantity you want for the opposing position and then select the "Reverse" button to close the existing position and then open the reverse position for the set quantity.
