HELLO IS IT POSIBLE TO DESIGN A TRADING SYSTEM IN ACSIL THAT HAS A "MOVE TO BREAKEVEN FOR STOP " ORDER BUT THIS ORDER BASED ON A PERCENTAGE INSTEAD OF A NUMBER OF TICKS , SO WHEN THE PRICE MOVES A PERCENTAGE FROM THE PARENT FILLED ORDER (NOT A NUMBER OF TICKS) THIS ORDER IS ACTIVATED AND MOVES TO THE BREAK EVEN PRICE?

IF IT IS POSSIBLE COULD YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN ME A LITTLE HOW IT MUST BE PROGRAMMED IN ACSIL?

AND IF IT IS NOT POSSIBLE IS THERE ANY WAY TO SEND A BREAK EVEN STOP ORDER BASED ON PERCENTAGE INSTEAD OF A NUMBER OF TICKS USING A NORMAL INDEPENDENT STOP ORDER ?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE

In ACSIL Attached Order prices need to be specified as price offsets or actual price values. You can always do your own calculations involving a percentage to come up with a price offset or price value.

How that is done is not within the scope of our support.
