OCO Buy Stop Sell Stop (Auto-Set)

I'm trying to find a way to quickly enter a OCO Buy Stop Sell Stop (Auto-Set) order at the current market price.
I do not want to have to right click on the chart and choose a price--the center price. This is too slow in certain conditions eg just before a report.
I simply want to click once and have the OCO orders entered at a fixed distance above and below whatever the current price is at the instant I click.
Is this possible ? If not, is it something that could be implemented ? It is a popular feature in other platforms. Thank you.

Thanks for considering this. When implemented, will it appear on the drop-down list of Order types in the Trade Window,so that it can be entered by clicking Buy or Sell ?

This is going to be out in the next release. It will be a new trading command on the right-click Chart Trade Shortcut menu.

I've just tested it and it works great.
Thanks to SC team for implementing this feature so quickly.
I don't think there's any other trading platform that is capable or willing to respond like this.
