[User Discussion] - Target Limit touch CHASE DOES NOT and not work !

Dear Sirs,

Ich have tried all day long (thanks to your similation) the configuration of
1.Target Limit touch Chase
2. Target chase

They do NOT work at all.

But the trailing stops work well as I planed.

Actually, After my opinion, BOTH should be combined together. If (for LONG) (trailing-) stop-loss moves up 1 Tick the Target chase should be automaticaly move up one tick also.

But it does NOT work ! i.e Target did not move up one tick. IT stays there as before.

Where did I do wrong ?

Thanks in advance

Refer to the documentation here for these order types:

Make sure to enter a nonzero Maximum Chase amount for these Attached Orders.

Dear sirs,

Thanks for the hint. But it does NOT solve my problem.

My plan is described as follows:

LONG @56.45

Step-trailing-stop @56.39 (stop-offset 8 and step amount 2)
Target 57.00

my question:

If the price move up 2 Ticks i.e. 56.45 + 0.02 = 56.47

What should I do in the confuguration such that
the Target change to 57 +0.02 = 57.02

?

For other platforms I do not need to do anything, the target will be automatcially adjusted up to 57.02 But Sierra Char does not change my target.

Please help me !

Does Sierra has any plan to create the intent order type of the User229721 in Post: 7 ?
I would also be interested.

Or would a very high Limit order would do the same thing I guess ?
