Keyboard shortcut to modify target based on entry offset?

Scenario:

Entry at 100, stop at 95, target 1 at 110, target 2 at 120.

Is there a way to set a shortcut to move target 2 to a certain tick offset from my entry? After my first target is hit, I may want to move my target 2 to 40 ticks from my entry instead of 20 ticks. I am aware of the Target Order Tick Up shortcut and also the right click menu option to move targets to price, but I would like to make custom keyboard shortcuts to move targets to a certain offset from entry. Is this possible?

This is not directly supported you would have to custom program this which you certainly could do:

Are you aware of any existing example of an advanced custom study that modifies existing orders that I could use as a starting point?
