    How do I split a limit or stop order when I'm using chart trader?

    Is there a quick way to split a limit or stop order when using chart trader? For example, if I'm currently in a long position with 5 contracts and I have a limit order set on the chart trader to sell those 5 contracts is there a way for me to quickly click on that limit order to grab one of those contracts and move it to create a separate limit order? So I would end up with the original limit order, but it would be for 4 contracts and the new limit order for one contract.

    I've keep thinking there must be a way to do this through some key combination, but I have not been able to find it.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction for this?

    Thanks!

    Hello Zigrivers,
    Unfortunately there are no short cuts to split a limit order.

    You have to either cancel the order and submit 2 (or more) separate order or modify the original order and submit additional orders.

      Ugh. That's too bad. It's seems like a fairly straightforward feature to let me quickly split a limit or stop order that I have sitting there. Any chance this might be something that's planned for the future? I'm sure I'm not the only one that uses chart trader that would greatly appreciate a feature like this.
