Attention!

maxreturn · 12-28-2010, 07:38 AM

Hello. I have set up a rather simple ATM. The initial stop is set at 8 ticks for both contracts with a trailing stop of 8 ticks for both. I want to set the profit targets manually so I set the profit targets to 0. Once the strategy is invoked I want to set different profit targets for each contract. The problem is that when I try placing the order the program only allows me to place an order for both contracts at the same price. When I try to change the quantity to one I then get an error message that this is not allowed. I'm confused. Appreciate your help as always.

Regards
Chuck

Hello Chuck,

Thank you for your post.

After you have entered the trade please set your Quantity to 1 then submit each exit order and let me know if the issue persists.
