How do you enable DCA for target and stop-loss?
I am using a trade window with attached order for the spreadsheet

when It place 3 trade $100, $95, $90 and I place a target of $10
it will then place 3 order $110 , $105, $100


Can you get it to DCA and just place a single take profit of $105 because my Avg price would be $95

You just need to add the Attached Orders that you require and set the settings on them appropriately. Refer to the instructions here:
Attached Orders: Step-By-Step Instructions

You only need to add one Attached Order.
