  1. Here is my setup which I hope you find useful. My buttons consist of 4 for buy and 4 for sell:

    Notes:

    BUY: places a limit order with 1/4 buying power and attaches a stop loss at 99% of last price at time of order. Note, the method suggested by Andrew at the very top didn't work for me and I found out that you couldn't attach a stop loss order with qty = position and price= av.cost as at the time of running the command there is no position to start with. So what I did is send two separate orders with one command, both with 1/4 buying power, one buy limit and one stop market

     

    Breakeven: It first cancels any pending orders (i.e the existing stop that went with original order) and then places a stop order at average purchase price

     

    Sell Half: Assuming you would do this to cash some profit (i.e you are on the profit side), it cancels any pending order, sells half the position, and then places a stop market for half the position at original purchase price.

     

    Close: Sells all and cancels all pending orders

     

    Same but opposite positions for the Short commands
