Hi,

I would like to setup an atm strategy with 3 orders.

first order target: 5 ticks
second order target : 10 ticks
third order would be a runner with a trailing stop of 8 ticks which starts when the second target 10 ticks is reached
The Stop Loss of 5 ticks would have to move to the breakeven when first target of 5 ticks is reached.

Could you explain me how i can setup it, i can setup the 2 orders with the breakeven but i don't understand how to setup the third order with the trailing stop 8 ticks which starts when the second target 10 ticks is reached.

I tryed reading the documentation but i don't understand.

Thanks

You will need to use the Triggered Trail Stop order type for this third stop order:

Based upon what you want, it sounds like you need 3 separate Stop Attached Orders, each in a separate OCO Group. So do not use All OCO Groups and a single stop order.
