Alternative approach would be if there is a way to control trade window settings through spreadsheet (stop and target distances, not just picking up pre-determined presets). One workaround would be to use the Trade Management by Study study. Attached Orders: Study Controlled Targets and Stops This study can move a Trade Window Attached Orders to a calculated price in a spreadsheet Formula Column. The limitation is that it will only move the Nearest, so you'd need to initially place the farthest 2 of the 3 targets at a predetermined price. As each target is reached the new nearest would be moved to its calculated price. This might not work as expected in a fast market. You can control the exit quantity, separate from the J26 quantity, in cells J82/J83, but you'd need complex formulas in J22-J25 for exit prices. And you could replicate an OCO with a complex formula in J29. Also, when using only L3/N3, or J29, for your exits, you don't have a stop loss in the market. This is why it is highly recommended to use the Trade Window's Attached Orders.
