When I enter trades I oftentimes start off with 2 contracts, while using an ATM Strategy that triggers a 2 contract stop-loss order and a 2 contract profit target.
I want to "let my winners run" with those 2 contracts.
Then later I enter 4 more contracts (with an ATM Strategy that triggers a 4 contract stop-loss order and a 4 contract profit target), and I plan to scalp and quickly exit those 4 contracts.
But when I enter 4 more contracts, NT8 attaches the profit target from that entry to my existing 2 contract profit target, which prevents me from letting my winners run on my initial 2 contract entry. And that ruins my risk/reward ratio, as now I am only scalping with all 6 contracts.
Is there a way to separate 2 contracts from a 6 contract profit target? If so, how is that done?
If not, is there anything I can I do to prevent NT8 from attaching one ATM Strategy profit target to a second ATM Strategy profit target when two ATM Strategies are executed, one later following the other?
