Hello, I'm having some difficulty figuring out the correct order entry method for my desired configuration. Here I will provide the scenario. Total order quantity = 5 contracts. After 3 ticks gain I'd like to sell 1 contract. After 4 ticks gain I'd like to sell 1 contract. After 5 ticks gain I'd like to move the stop order to -2 (negative) tick gains. After 6 ticks gain I'd like to sell 1 contract. The final 2 contracts I'd like to use a trailing stop where the stop follows market price and follows by 3 ticks. This should work the same for both long and short position. Knowing what types of orders to use for each type of scenario would be a big help. |
