Opening a reversing trade upon entry

[nut229]

Is there a way to change my buy order to a sell order even though I clicked on the buy button? I just want a way for the system to open a opposite trade on whatever trade I do take.

Hello nut229,

You can't change an active buy order into a sell order. You would need to cancel the buy order and then submit a sell order.

If you refer to a long position (the buy order filled and put you in a long position), it can't be changed into a short position. You would need to close the long position first and then submit a sell order to get into a short position.
