Hello, I'm sorry but I'm not able to find the instructions about closing a percentage of a trade position. For exemple in particular: I have a single trade of one contract open, and then, after a provvisory profit/loss I want to close the 50% of that. Is it possible? (instead to open more positions, because I trade with just one contract per time) Thank you |

You can not close out 50% of a quantity of 1. 1 is the smallest size available.

Predefined OCO's don't always work if we scale in to a future ultimately unknown size depending on how market conditions develop. If there are multiple quantity of contracts open, could there be an easy way to scale out portions/%'s of each current remaining, ie scale out in 1/5's, 1/4's, 1/3's? |

You have to adjust the quantity and then perform the Scale Out. There is not a built-in method to do it in percentages.
