Order Configuration - Cancel Disaster Stop if position goes flat

HI:

I want to use the attached orders manually with "Use Attached Orders."

Concept:
Manually enter an order from DOM.
- EX - go long
Use Attached Orders enters a Disaster stop - 8 ticks away.
EX - I exit the trade.

Can the Stop be canceled automatically if the position is flat?

I tried "Stop" without a limit and the stop doesn't auto-cancel if I exit the trade?

It might be simpler to just make my target and Stop at 8 ticks and hope SC cancels the stop if the position goes to flat.
