I have been working today on 2 hotkeys for myself.
The script(s) uses the defined R/R script from previous Kyles hotkeys.
It performs the following:
Cancels any previous orders for the symbol
Enters the trade, ensuring total shares bought is equally divisible by 4 (rounded down); this prevents having extra shares hanging around after the range trades complete or stop out.
Creates a range order at your stop level for 1/4 of your initial shares bought with a profit level of 2R
Creates a range order at your stop level for 1/4 of your initial shares bought with a profit level of 3R
Creates a range order at your stop level for 1/4 of your initial shares bought with a profit level of 4R
Creates a single order at your stop for the remaining 1/4 shares; This allows you to ride the last 1/4 to whatever level you want before exiting
As with Kyles hot key scripts, you double click your chart at the level you want to place your stop then press your button or hot key

Everything prior to defshare=1000 in each script is completely from the original Risk/Reward Hotkeys except the bit of code that ensures the number of shares is equally divisible by 4.
Feel free to give them a try and let me know if there are any issues.
My elaborate setup with my new favorite movie .. based on a true story.
No that's not my real setup, I use three watches. But seriously, I can't share my setup (currently building a new desk), so I thought I'd have some fun with this. I'll show myself out.
