Splitting uneven trade size using 2 targets with common stop

Hello,
I'm using a formula within a spreadsheet for autotrading to determine order quantity while backtesting. I am also using the 2 targets with a common stop function. When the order quantity is uneven, for example 7 total quantity, the trade automatically gets split into 3 contracts for the first target and 4 contracts for the 2nd target. Is there a way to set it up so that the larger quantity is always used for the first target? Thanks.

The only solution to this is to use ACSIL:

This cannot be controlled through Spreadsheets.
