Regarding Auto Adjusting Attached Orders

I understand why you guys put this feature in a couple updates ago, but what are my options insofar as turning it off? Anything?

Here's the reason why I want to - on an entry, I'll have my attached stop at a place that I expect if the market returns to I should no longer be in my position. When I get slippage and my entry is worse than my expected price, that attached order is no longer at that place - it's become arbitrary and has to be adjusted to where I initially wanted it because it has now slid with the entry price.

It would be immensely helpful if there was a way to turn off the auto adjust. Or to make it stop auto adjusting if there is an order fill.

Nothing has changed with the automatic adjustment of the Target and Stop to maintain the original offset they had to the parent order when the parent order fills. Other than if you have manually adjusted the Target or Stop, then that automatic adjustment will not occur. But if you did not manually adjust them, then it does occur as it always has been.
