Hello,

You can do this by using a SetProfitTarget with a unique tag for each order.

Please take a look at our reference sample on Scaling out of position for an example of how to accomplish this:

Thanks

That looks to work Great.... Now i need to find a way to move my Stop up to Entry after the First Car Exit ???

Thanks
Marc

Glad that worked out for you. We also have a reference sample on Modifying the price of stop loss and profit target orders

If you wanted to modify the stoploss after a specific profit target has been hit, you would need to monitor these orders in OnExecution and OnOrderStatus, which are more advanced programming concepts.


You should also be able to accomplish your goal by creating an ATM Strategy template and calling an ATM Strategy method. An example of doing so can be found below:

You can see an example of how to use an ATM Strategy in Tools--> Edit NinjaScript--> Strategy--> SampleATMStrategy
