Hi Please tell me how to set up the following... Hard Stop -20 ticks Trigger for trail -12 ticks Close trade at -4 ticks To explain further, if price exceed 12 ticks set to close the trade at break-even or 4 ticks loss upon pullback. IF not then hard stop will be triggered. otherwise if the trade is positive not trailing required then. I have read and tried everything I can think of. Best regards |

Hey John I want my targets to move to Break-even if the trade is offset ( down ) by a certain ticks. I dont see the option to move target to B.E. Only Stops. I want to limit my loss not to cover my profits. |

I want to set up my trade window so my target move to B.E if the trade goes against a certain number of ticks ?? To explain further, If i buy at 10 and the price goes to 7 then all targets move to breakeven, otherwise a hard stop at 5 will be hit. Thank you |

Sorry, we did not recognize that you had specified Targets. We do not have a way to move Targets to breakeven like there is for Stops. You might be able to put something together using the Spreadsheet System for Trading. Refer to the information here: Spreadsheet Systems, Alerts and Automated Trading Otherwise, you would have to create a custom study to do what you want. For this, refer to the information starting here: Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
