Hi,

Is there a built-in way that would provide the following order modification functionality:

I place an OCO order with a stop-loss and two targets.
If I move the stop-loss further back manually after the order is placed, can the first target move up automatically in a certain ratio.
E.g. I move the stop-loss back two ticks, causing the first target to automatically move up one tick; thus keeping the original risk/reward roughly the same as when the order was placed.

There is not direct support for this but it could be developed as a custom study using ACSIL. Refer to:

Is this functionality still not supported?

If not, could you work on it for future releases? I think is a feature that many users would find valuable, thanks

Hi,

Was there ever implemented? It would be very helpful to automatically move the target order by a certain ratio based on manually moving the stop order..

There is no direct support for this. The only way to do it is to create a custom study.
