Can I do this in trade context menu buy/sell? right click my mouse:

1. above current price, just show sell limit and buy stop and so on.

2. below current price, just show buy limit and sell stop and so on.

I always select wrong if all in the context menu.

No, but there is this setting to prevent against incorrect order entry:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Reject Chart Trade Orders That Will Immediately Fill (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> General >> Order Entry)

Here is what I do, perhaps it will help you. I arranged my trading submenu by putting my entry commands that I want above price and below price with a separator in between. Now I don't need to "think" I just select the appropriate trade from the group when I'm ABOVE current price and the lower group when I'm BELOW current price.

See my example in the attached image.
