Hello,
If Possible, I'd like to create an order system for TT that lets me submit two individual entry limit orders that cancel the other when one is filled. Once I'm in a position of 5 contracts, I'd like to have 3 targets, a hard stop, a stop that moves to break even after 16 ticks in my favor and a stop that moves to 4 ticks above break even after the first profit target is hit. I'd like the first profit target to be 3 contracts off at 20 ticks, the second target to be 1 contract off at 40 ticks and the third target to be market on close of the day at 16:00 hrs EST. Can this be done? If not, can you tell me how to program as much of it as possible so I don't have to babysit it all day? I struggling piecing it all together after reading the online manuals.

Right now, I have my SC trading platform set as follows but it isn't working right: 2TargetsWithBEStop, 5 contracts, Target1-20T-QTY3-Lmt, Target2-40T-QTY1-LMT, Target3-1000T-QTY1-LMT, Stop All 16T-Stop -Move To Breakeven for Stop Type: Ofset in Ticks Triggered: BE Level Offset 4, Trigger Offset (Ticks)16, TIF: Day
