On the trade window, I'm trying to set stop limit as my stop loss order but can't figure out how to do it. As an example, if I buy a stock at 50.00, I want my stop loss to trigger at 49.90, 10 cents below my entry, with a sell limit order at 49.50, 50 cents below my entry. How do I do this? The trade window only allows stop offset of 10 cents. Where do I set the limit order? As I have attached the trade window, there are 2 fields below the stop offset but greyed out.
