    Trail after Target Filled

    This may be a stupid question, but...

    I'm using 'Last price for auto trail and auto breakeven'. If my target is hit but I am not filled does the auto trail kick in.
    If so, is there a way for auto trail to only start once a target is filled.

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    Your auto-trail will kick in if the price is reached. If the order is filled and the auto-trail is set for that target the auto-trail or stop order will cancel based on OCO.

    You can set an auto-trail for target 2 that will only start once a target price level has been reached. This would be done in the following:

    target 1

    Profit target = x.

    Target 2 auto trail

    Profit trigger = x.

      I have my stops and targets set, all O.K.
      Does the auto trail start when the target is hit, whether I am filled at that target or not?
      Is there a way for the auto trail to start only if I am filled?

      Thanks.

        Hello,

        If your order is filled your auto trail will automatically cancel due to OCO.

          Yes, but I have still have targets 2 and 3.

          Can you just confirm (or deny :-) ) that auto trail/breakeven will start whether or not my target is filled.

          Thanks.

            Your Auto Trail will kick in as soon as you hit your Profit Target, so when your Target gets filled.

              So if the traded price hits my target price but I do not get filled, then the auto trail feature does not kick in.

              That's great, thanks.
