Post From: A couple questions about trade execution

Hello,

On the chart and ChartDOM, all for a single instrument:

1. Scenario: I place multiple orders. Each of them has attached "Child-client" orders, which are not in effect yet, but which WILL be in effect if my core orders fill. My issue is that when live orders and child orders occur on the same price increment, live orders are frequently (or always? not sure) not visible because the child orders are on "top." I always want live orders to be on top so I can easily see and adjust them.

2. I want to fully close an open position (with any attached orders) without canceling other, unrelated/un-attached open orders. If I hit Flatten, it closes the position AND cancels all other open orders. What options do I have to perform this task? The closest option I have thought of so far to not lose my other orders is to have "support scale-out" enabled and then in Chart Trade window, uncheck "use attached orders," set the quantity and then exit with the market order button. But this is many clicks, cumbersome, and takes way too long for making and executing these active decisions on the fly.

Thank you.
