Is it possible to not allow to increase the stop size while in a trade?

There are no restrictions on this. If you are having trouble with this, you first need to look at the Trade Activity Log to determine the problem:
Trade Activity Log: Viewing Historical Trade Activity

And contact your broker about the issue.

Sorry for not being precise on this.

I meant, is there a possibility / a setting within SC that can be activated, that the trader can not increase the stop size while being in a trade? A tool / helping to be more disciplined and sticking with the decision made when entering the trade.

Hope it's clear now.

We can add a global setting for an individual symbol to limit the maximum quantity of an order.

This has nothing to do with the quantity of the order.

Using attached orders: can SC prevent me from being able to move the stop further away from the entry price? Moving the stop closer to the entry is ok though. See the screenshot.

Clear now?
Is this possible or can it be added?
