Please help me know how I can get into trades myself not by preset orders but to get out of my trades by preset attached orders.

Thank you.

Thank you for sending these documents. To be more specific, please let me know if I can have a child order with bigger quantity than the parent order quantity. For example, when I go long with 3 contract, I need an automatic sell stop be ordered with 6 contracts so when market goes against me and my 3 longs are sold with stop order, I want another 3 contracts gets sold for me at the same time. Something like setting an automatic reverse order.
I can not do this now, It shows a message that child order must have a quantity bigger than parent order.

Thank you.

This is not directly supported as you are looking for.

In this case what you need to do is enter a separate order at the same price as the Stop order.

And you would probably be interested in using a Triggered Limit order which would be safer to reenter the market after there is some retracement of price:
Order Types: Triggered Limit

Also, please let me know how I may add up quantities in a column in DOM like total volumw column or P/L column. It shows the total of every price but I need the sum of all at a time.

Thank you.
