2 Targets, BE, Trail ATM

[sam11976]

I need to do the following:
I long 100 contracts,2 targets:
1st 40 contracts, once PT hits 2 ticks, have AutoBE at 0 (tight stop loss for 1st 40 contracts)
then for the 2nd 60 contracts, have a trail with 3 steps which starts with PT is 4....(this I figured out).

I tried but the first 40 did not respect the BE stop.

I emailed support and got a link to your online help.

Hello sam11976,

If I understand your description correctly, please setup your ATM strategy as follows.

Target 1

Qty: 40
Stop loss: unknown
Profit target: unknown

Stop strategy
Auto Breakeven
Profit trigger: 2
Plus: 0


Target 2

Qty: 60
Stop loss: unknown
Profit target: unknown

Stop strategy
Auto Breakeven
Profit trigger: 2
Plus: 0

You will need to setup the Auto Breakeven strategy for both Targets, so when you have 2 ticks in profit, both stop losses will adjust to breakeven.
