Hi,

When using Move to Breakeven for Stop function with offset in ticks triggered, if I manually move the stop order to a different price before the trigger is reached, will the stop still automatically move to the BE level when price does reach the trigger?

Thanks,
Darryl

Yes but if you are moving it to beyond the breakeven level, then we would have to check but we do not think it would move.

Also, would manually moving the target orders have any impact on the stop automatically moving to BE?

This has been added to the documentation:

The move to breakeven action does not occur if the Stop order is moved beyond the calculated breakeven level. For example, in the case of a Sell Stop order, the Stop order price has to be less than the breakeven level price plus the Breakeven Level Offset for the Stop order to be moved.
