Hello,

Sometimes I don't like want to start a position with attached orders, but at a later date I would like to attach a Stop and a Take Profit to the existing position. Is that possible? How?

Thank you in advance.

Good question. Try an OCO limit and stop. That works in Gain trader, but I'm uncertain if that can be done in the SC trade DOM. I don't know if doing that in SC just enters the exits (the limit and stop) or not?

Would also be helpful with option to change prices on existing orders in the Trade Orders window.
