    Hello,

    I would like to set a SELL AT .. STOP (or EXITSHORT AT .. STOP) instruction but only for a part of the total amount of the positions taken buy the system.

    I unsuccessfully tried this:

    SELL Ncontract AT stoplevel STOP

    How could I do this ?

    Many thanks if someone knows the answer

    to make a partial payment of the amount
    I use

    or

    exitshort 1 contract at market

    No, you can’t exit partial positions using pending orders. ALL positions will be closed.

    Only AT MARKET orders are allowed to exit partial positions.
