I can't figure this out even with all the documentation and am about to pull my hair out.

I want to buy 1 contract with a target of 11 ticks. (easy)

Once i get to 7 ticks, I want to lock in 1.
8 ticks, lock 2
9 ticks, lock 6
10 ticks lock 8

The first 2 i can easily get with "Move to breakeven for stop" (step 1 and 2). When I try to get the others is where I get thrown off.

A step 3, and 4 would have made it nice and easy.

I won't go through the huge list of things i've tried.
Thank you

Not totally clear what you want to do, but if you need 4 steps for the Move to Breakeven functionality, then that is not supported. There are only two of them.

OK, this is not supported unless you do this through your own custom study using ACSIL trading:
