Post From: Attached orders based on price / study calculations?

I’d like to set targets (and stops) immediately upon order fill using a price / study calculation (price +/- ATR). I can’t figure out how to do this using the "Trade Management By Study”. I have referenced “Attached Orders: Study Controlled Targets and Stops” as well and it doesn’t seem to work for my use case.

Example / ideal flow:

- Buy order fills via spreadsheet trading system buy entry signal, quantity 2, @ price X
- Target 1, quantity 1, price = order fill price + 1*ID1.SG1 (assume ID1=ATR for example)
- Target 2, quantity 1, price = order fill price + 2*ID1.SG1
- Stop 1&2 = order fill price - 0.5*ID1.SG1

I’d like to be able to keep executing orders if signals are generated, with max quantity set only in the spreadsheet trading system “Maximum Position Allowed” field. I want the attached targets and stops to be set immediately upon order fill, and not modified after.

Is this possible?
