I try to set the spreadsheet system for trading, but the results are not good. I want to do following things, but do not know how to set the spreadsheet system for trading.

when the trading system has a buy signal, it use attached orders to sent in order. the attached order is to buy 2 contracts, one with target and another using trailing stop, both have stop orders.

I want to have more orders entry with same direction, and the max position size for one direction is 6 contracts.

after the order filled, I want to see the profit target hit on one contract and let another following the trailing stop order. if another buy signal comes , i want to buy another 2 contracts. and keep all the stop orders with them. if all my trailing stop and target order are filled before I see a sell entry, then all positions are gone. the sell side trading starts with no long positions. but sometimes the sell signal comes and the only part of the long position being sold, still left some long position. for example if I have 4 contracts, only 2 is sold left 2 long positions on market, and all stop orders are cancelled.

what I want is when I have an sell order, I want to sell all my long position, and cancel all trailing stop order and target order attached with them. and at same time sell 2 contracts with stop and profit target order attached.

I am not sure how to do on setting to achieve that, it will be very appreciated if someone can help ?
