Hello,

Let me know please how to create an order configuration where stop loss automatically moves to breakeven level when price goes 20 cents up from the order price.


Thank you.

Hello,

When I buy several stocks at once, it does not move stop loss to breakeven until I open/switch to the stock chart. It cannot move stop loss to breakeven in background. Is it correct? Or is it possible to change somehow?


Thank you.

Hello,

I understand that -
The chart or Trade DOM the orders were entered from needs to remain open and continue to be set to both the same Symbol and Trade Account that the order is for.

Can you update the program so that it could support breakeven functionality with stocks added in the Quoteboard, not only the stock with chart opened? Because if chart is opened and I see this chart I can update stop loss to breakeven manually myself. But the main point of this function is that the program could update breakeven price on those stocks the charts of which I don't see. But now it is impossible. Please find some solution if possible.


Thank you.
