Hello,

In this case you can simply set the order quantity to 1 and submit whatever type of exit order you prefer. For example, if long 2 contracts you would change the 'order quantity' in the order entry window you are using to 1 and select whatever sell order type you wish to use.

so you mean click the buy button twice for the 2 contracts
