Hi,

Could you provide some quick guidance on how to set up this order in the trade window?
I have read the documentation but being new I haven't quite figured out the nuances to get this right.

Buy Limit Order with attached orders
Sell Trailing Stop 10 ticks offset
Sell 'Take Profit' Limit order 20 ticks offset

Thank you very much.

This is a simple bracket order. Refer to the following for an example:
Attached Orders: Simple Bracket Example

The only differences are that you will set the Stop as a "Trailing Stop".

Also, on the Main page of the Trading Window set your order type as a "Limit". Refer to the following:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Main >> Order Type

Practice the setup in Simulation mode. Find an area where the price is moving in a way that fits what you are trying to do and then run a replay and put in the order and make sure it does what you are expecting. Refer to the following:
