I cannot find the answer to this question.

I have an OCO trade open which has been filled and i wish to disable the automatic trade management and continue manually moving stop or profit.

How do i do this and is there a hot key available?

thanks

How are you doing trade management? Are you using something like Trade Management by Study?

For Trade Management by Study, you can add an ACS button to enable or disable the automated trade management.

Hi, i "open trade window for chart" and use the trade management under the "targets" tab.

Here i have the option for 2 steps at the bottom and in addition i can change the stop and target type to trail or step etc.

So i don't know what Sierra are calling this approach as it's just within the targets tab.

And how to turn this off when in an active trade??

thanks

Those are Attached Orders. And unless you are using the Move to Breakeven for Stop settings or a Trailing stop, then there is nothing more you need to do but if you want to prevent the Move to Breakeven action or the trailing stop action, you have to go through this procedure:
