Hi I have 2 questions, one on charting and another on trade order entry

1. Is it possible to have my chart gapped from the right vertical axis by a fixed distance? Attached chart for reference.

2. I have a trading system that generates a signal to enter a trade, but I wish to enter via a limit order of say 2-3ticks better, rather than entering at the market. I know this can be manually done using limit order entry, but is there a faster way to do on the trade window along with an attached OCO order?

Thanks.
