Adding contracts/shares in 11.2

[SteveH]

Setup:

1. I enter a Crude futures (CL) trade with 1 contract with a 100 tick target and a 20 tick stop loss.

2. I add 1 contract a various points as the trade goes my way (i.e. not at "fixed" locations away from the original order). Let's say I added 5 add-ons of 1 contract each for a total of 6 contracts as the CL continues to head for my 100 tick target (based off of the initial entry).

Question:

Can the 11.2 trading software be setup to where each additional contract added to the original trade AUTOMATICALLY adds 1 contract to the initial target and stop-loss as each add-on contract is filled?

SteveH,

Thanks for the question. At this time, 11.2 cannot automatically update the stop to reflect the new order, but we do have this on our list to do in a future release.

One quick way that an existing order can be edited quickly is by left clicking on the quantity. While not as good as automatic, it is more convenient than it was in 10.6.
