Hello,

I have been trying for a couple of days to setup a specific bracket order but can't seem to figure it out. Example I would like to protect my trade with putting a 4 point SL on ES500. My entry will be with 2 contracts. Once i'm positive 2 points I would like to scale out one contract and bring my stop loss one point above or below entry.

Example Short 3280 2 contracts
sl 3282
Target 3279 hits reduce 1 contract
sl 3281

Would like this option to be available for Long and Short entries.


Profit will be done manually just need to setup up this routine for bracket orders and scaling. The purpose is to try to protect my trades and worse case scenario I break-even or loose my initial SL . I have friends who us other platforms who managed to setup up this process automatically.

Please help me. I would really appreciate it.

Can you please send me an email with the process?

Disregard the previous post. This was not a correct configuration.

Refer to the example here for this:
Attached Orders: 2 Targets and Common Stop with Move to Breakeven on First Target (2 Targets and Common Stop with Move to Breakeven on First Target)

In your case you would just use one Target.
