For the range order script below (eg Long with 2:1 range order), how would I alter them so that if the first profit target is hit, only 1/2 position is sold (so that I can then continue partialing). But if Stop Loss is hit, full position is sold.

Also, if the first profit target is hit, could a stop loss for the remaining position be set at break even?

CXL ALLSYMB;StopPrice=Price-0;DefShare=BP*0.925;Price=Ask-Price+0.00;SShare=20/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=200;Price=Ask-StopPrice*2+Ask;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:RANGE LowPrice:StopPrice HighPrice:Price ACT:SELL QTY:POS TIF:DAY+

I've tried altering the bolded red text above to read "POS*0.5" but that affects both sides of the range. I want the profit target to be set at half and the stop loss at the full position size.

 

was anyone able to create this script?

that would require more complicated hotkeys containing conditional execution (or placing a set of orders) which is possible but it comes with some challenges. I might be covering it in one of my hotkeys posts here

feel free to ask there any of your requirements I can use for the use case
