A couple of questions on orders. I have read the order doco here Order Types but havent been able to find what I want. I might just be dense.

1. Is there a way to create an order that I can add an entry a Stop loss and take profit from the chart, in the same way I create a OCO Buy Stop Sell Stop.

Right-click with your pointing device on the chart at the Buy Stop price and select OCO Buy Stop Sell Stop on the Chart Trade menu. Move your Pointer to the Sell Stop price and left click.

In my case I would like it work much the same as the Risk Reward Tool, in that I would follow the same logic as above, set the Stop Loss, then Entry, then Take Profit. The Stop Loss and Take Profit would be OCO. If the entry was cancelled it would cancel the other two.

The reason I would like to do this from the chart is the stop loss and take profit distances are dynamic, so using static values won't really work.

2. Alternatively if there was a way to right click on my R/R tool and convert to configured orders that would also be great. Does this exist?

1. Are you familiar with the Attached Order functionality already and it does not do what you need?



2. No this does not exist.
