Id like to run 2 contracts on ES, with an initial target of 4 points, after the 1 target is hit, one contract is closed, I would like the second contract stop to go automatically to break even. How can I do this? Thanks

Refer to this page:

You will need to use the Move to Breakeven for Stop settings.

There are some included examples.

Do you already have the Stop and Target order set up on the Targets tab of the Trade Window?

If so, then refer to the instructions here:

I'm missing something. Its hitting the target 1 and the stop is not moving to break even for the remaining contracts. I've read through other posts looking for this and have not found anything. I have seen y'all build a custom order entry to download for someone else. Can you please build me one and Ill just download it and save it to my data folder? thank you

Yes we can do that. No problem but Sierra Chart already has a 2TargetsWithBEStop.twconfig Trade Window configuration which you can select and shows you how this is done.

Here are instructions to use it:

Let us know if you do not see it or it is not exactly what you want.
