Hi,
I think I can use offsets in a Move to BE for an attached order I have in mind, but not sure.
I have read the move to BE doc section, but not having any luck.

Initial bracket order is target 15, stop 20.

After price has triggered an entry, when price reaches a profit of 7 ticks, I'd like my stop moved (from the 20 value) to where 5 ticks profit is (a trail, but it moves no further).
I realize these stops are managed by SC, SC has to be running, and data connected etc.

Yes this is supported.

In the Move to Breakeven for Stops section:
Attached Orders: Move to Breakeven for Stop

You need to set this to 5:
Attached Orders: Breakeven (BE) Level Offset (Breakeven (BE) Level Offset)

Hi,
Is there away to move the price values next to the chart and not have the fill space separate values and chart?

Hi,
Sorry, what i wish to do is have the fill space to the right of the prices.
A rough diagram is attached.
fill space is the blackened out column at furthest right.
I still wish to preserve the fill space
