+TARGET quick button

I've been trying to figure out how to add a target using the +TARGET quick button, with no luck. Left clicking on -TARGET cancels the strategy target in place, but nothing happens when left clicking +TARGET. How does this button work? Thanks.

Hi alanack,

Thank you for your post.

To see how the +TARGET functions, please do the following...

1. Submit an order with a Order quantity of 3, with a Stop Loss and Profit Target.
2. Select +TARGET to see the Profit Target separate.

So this function is just to separate out the targets from a multiple contract entry? And the only way to add a target to a single contract position is to right click and then click on add target, is this correct? Thanks.

Hi alanack,

Yes, this is how the +TARGET works.

If you want to scale in to a position, you can simply submit another order. For example, by selecting BUY to add to a long position.
