Set trailing stop – what am I mistaking?

sickman_84 · 2017-10-02T13:58:26+00:00

Hi everyone! I am new on the forum and I don’t have experience with proreal time. I would like to understand the following: I would like to buy nr. 3 contracts on Italian MINI FTSE MIB , based on the following conditions: SET STOP $LOSS 200 SET TARGET $PROFIT 400 Then I would like to close nr.2 contracts (out of 3) at the target profit mentioned above; I would like to set a trailing stop on the 3rd position at $400, possibly with +/- 4 ticks before setting the trailing stop. Can anyone help me? thanks Giovanni

Nel forum italiano bisogna scrivere in italiano, per correttezza nei confronti di chi nion conosce lingue straniere.

Per il tuo problema devo dirti che, al momento, ProOrder non consente la chiusura parziale di operazioni.

Topic moved to English forum.

As Roberto said, it is not possible to close partially a position through ProOrder. When you initiate a closure of positions with code, the whole opened positions will be closed at the same time.
