Really struggling with the scale out settings. If I enter a trade and the market goes my way and I add to it when I scale out I want to keep my first position and scale out the second position I entered so the first position becomes my core position and I would like to scale in and out around it. What setting do I need to set for this to happen Currently it scales out the first position and moves my price to the second position when I want to keep the first and scale out the second |

Hi The above certainly works to keep the core position on the ladder but it does not match the trade activity log i.e even hough the ladder closes the last position the activity log closes the first position, how can I have that matching? |
