click release order adjustments

I am experimenting with click release order adjustments after having used drag drop since inception. DD is slow in these fast markets so lately I have found it more viable to place my "near stop" by right clicking on the DOM in addition to my bracket orders, if the near stop or target fills, OCO cancels all orders. this works fine except for the potential of being "double filled" especially in a fast market or if my bracketed stop adjusts(which I can modify of course)

upon experimenting with click release I like that pending order adjusts with pointer, and the color of pending adjusted order changes, however....

if a fill occurs when the adjustment is pending those orders remain visible on the DOM, they are not live, but visually still there until I click anywhere in the dom...causes touch of anxiety.. lol...

also upon clicking for adjust i visually can lose track of where my last stop/target actually is, i can see it in the trade orders window, but not the dom. So not sure if its best for me to continue with "near stop" and emergency stop method. (I can see where orders are at least) are any further adjustments possible?

I have noticed that when using near stop and emergency stop method (so with a long 2 lot position....2 sell LX limits above price and total of 4 sell stops below price, that I can no longer scale out, or limit out in full, i can only flatten out....this may due to me constraining max position size?

working with exits...so help is appreciated

We are not clearly understanding this:
I have noticed that when using near stop and emergency stop method (so with a long 2 lot position....2 sell LX limits above price and total of 4 sell stops below price, that I can no longer scale out, or limit out in full, i can only flatten out....this may due to me constraining max position size?
Is there a rejection, from the trading server? You will see this in Trade >> Trade Service Log.

Regarding this:
if a fill occurs when the adjustment is pending those orders remain visible on the DOM, they are not live, but visually still there until I click anywhere in the dom...causes touch of anxiety.. lol...
Are you saying that you are in the process of adjusting the order? And it, continues to remain visible, even after a fill until you left click again to complete the adjustment? If so, this is completely normal.
