Question RE: attached orders functionality

Question:
Is it supported to automatically bracket a new position IF you started the position by doubling the stop order size of an initial position?

My current workflow:
Double stop size to effectively reverse when stop hit.

Result = a new position in opposite direction - but without a new stop/target bracket - so a naked position.
I currently use "Send attached orders - position" to protect the new position and wondering if there is a way to eliminate this step.

I don't use the reverse function because, in certain cases, I only want to reverse if stop hit.

I have researched this extensively and just wondering if I'm not seeing the setting that would provide this functionality, or if I am doing it the best way.

Thank you so much for your time.

Refer to the updated instructions here to reverse on stop:
Attached Orders: Reversing on Stop Attached Order

You need to submit a new Stop order for this.
