Stop loss moving on touch not fill

[kommish777]

Hi,

I have been testing a strategy I hope to use and the mechanics has been working fine until my last test trade. I will be opening with 3 contracts and taking profit at 2,4 and 8 ticks. I start with a S/L of -6 for all 3. I want to move the S/L to -2 once I hit Profit 2. This has been working great, mechanically, until just now when it moved the S/L on the touch of P2, but then it never got filled, and of course went down and hit that S/L that shouldn't have been moved. To make things worse, it only moves 1 S/L up to -2 and the other is still at it's original location so I can end up losing more on that 3rd contract too.

Is there a way to not move the S/L unless P2 is filled? I am using an ATM strategy with Stop Strategy Auto Breakeven of Profit Trigger 4 and Plus -2.


Thanks

Hello kommish777,

Currently the Stop Strategy will trigger when a single execution occurs at the trigger price and there is not an option to move the Stop Loss based on the fill of a specific Profit target.
