To have a Stop placed when you enter your Market Order, use the Attached Orders feature. Refer to the following:
Attached Orders

By default, whatever you have setup in your Trade Window, will be what is setup for your order. Therefore, if you just always want the 2 points offset, then you would just leave the Stop setup as 2 points and when you do a Buy or Sell, it will put it at the right place. Therefore, you would just need two shortcuts, one for Buy and one for Sell.

If you are going to be changing your setup and not always have the 2 point offset, then you would want to use the Trade Configurations to change between the setups. You can set these to Control Bar or Keyboard Shortcuts as well. Refer to the following:
