Here are a few of the Hotkeys I use with CMEG:
(You need to ensure you enable double click to trade on the chart - then double click when you want your stop to be)
Buy with $25 Risk with SL at clicked price:
StopPrice=Price-0.01;DefShare=BP*0.9;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=25/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=LIMIT;Price= Ask+0.03;TIF=DAY;BUY=Send;DefShare=125;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.2 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY;
Sell 25% of your position and move SL to break even:
CXL ALLSYMB;ROUTE=LIMIT;Price=BID-0.03;Price=Round2;Share=Pos*.25;TIF=DAY;SELL=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=AvgCost;Share=Pos-share;TIF=DAY;SELL=SEND
Short with $25 Risk with SL at Clicked price:
StopPrice=Price+0.01;DefShare=BP*0.9;Price=Price-Bid+0.01;SShare=25/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=LIMIT;Price=Bid-0.03;TIF=DAY;SELL=Send;DefShare=125;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice+0.2 ACT:BUY STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY;
Cover 25% of your position
CXL ALLSYMB;ROUTE=LIMIT;Price=ASK+0.03;Price=Round2;Share=Pos*.25;TIF=DAY;BUY=Send;
Set SL at Break Even (works either direction) - uses Market - but no difference on commission with CMEG
CXL ALLSYMB;ROUTE=STOP;Price=AvgCost;StopType=MARKET;STOPPRICE=AvgCost;StopPrice=Round2;Share=Pos;TIF=DAY;Send=Reverse;ROUTE=LIMIT;
---
Also, not sure if relevant (i suspect it is), but under Setup > Order Template, I have Route set as LIMIT and Time in Force as DAY.
Hope that helps
