How to change exit rules during a trade?

Hi,

I have two different exit rules. The first is a bracket order that is sent when entering a trade.
If price action goes the way I thought, everything is fine and I don't have to close the position manually.

But if conditions change during the trade, I might have to delete the current bracket orders and activate the second exit rule.

So how can I delete all current bracket orders that belong to exit rule #1 and activate exit rule #2?

And is it possible to do this with a click of a button?

Thanks,
Maurice

First step is to make sure both Attached Order configurations are saved:

You need to cancel the Target and Stop orders. Refer to:

You need to then select the particular Attached Order configuration you want to use and then follow the instructions here:
