  1. Hi there,

    I have two questions on the scripts:

    [1] I have this script which sets an order bracket at 3R:

    CXL ALLSYMB; Route=Limit;Share=Pos;Price=AvgCost-StopPrice;Price=Price*3;Price=Price+AvgCost;Price=Round2;Route=Stop;StopType=Range;LowPrice=StopPrice;HighPrice=Price;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send

    But I am trying to set two target limit orders instead of the single target.

    ie. 33% at 2R, 100% at 3R?  (I am still backtesting my exit management and this may change to B/E at 2R and 100% at 3R)

    Is this possible to do this with a single script/hotkey?

    [2] I can raise the stop to Break Even easily but Is it possible to raise the stop to 2R (or 1.8R) once I get to 2R?  I guess I can if I keep the same ticker showing but not is I want to switch tickers in the montage?

    Thanks in advanced

    I have been using these hotkeys and they have helped a lot. I wanted a slight variant to get into a trade. At present the hotkey picks the price from mouse click as stop loss level and then gets into the trade with $X risk. 

    I want to send a Limit order to buy at a specific price (selected by clicking on the chart) and then setting up the stop loss accordingly to have $X risk.  (sort of reverse of existing setup).

    Would be really helpful if I can get these for Long and short position. 

    The rationale to use is that when watching multiple charts, I sometimes miss the movement on chart A when focusing on chart B. But I have levels marked at the point where I expect to take a trade. With trades pre set with limit orders, this will become easier to manage. 

    When I get a moment I am going to build a script for this exact set up myself as I often want to get into a trade but once it breakouts and not immeidately..  unless someone already has a script for this scenario please?
