Hi, letīs say that i have enabled strategy A and entered the market. I have the revese at stop enabled, so if my stop is hit i will reverse my position and the brackets will be placed according to strategy A.
The problem is that after the reverse i would like to use different setup and would like the brackets to be placed accrding to a strategy B.
How can i do this ?

Hello spitfire,
Thank you for your post.
Unfortunately when using the Reverse feature you cannot change the ATM Strategy attached.
In order to submit a order at your Stop Loss that would reverse your current position with a different strategy attached you would need submit a second order manually at the same price as your Stop Loss.
I have provided a link below to our Help Guide that goes over Submitting Orders.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

I tried but it doesnīt work. My idea was to enter the market with strategy A and then place manualy another stop order at the same level where the stop loss of strategy A, but it did not work ..
Which mode i have to select in strategy selection mode ? Maybe i have to do this with two different DOMS opened and the strategies enabled in each DOM ? (or chart trader + DOM and i enter from charts with strategy A and then give a stop order with strategy B in the DOM ?)

I tried this in the simulation mode with ATM Selection Mode set by defaultand it works!
By now this is a solution but in the future you have to add and option to use a different strategy after reverse. WE NEED this option!
Another VERY IMPORTANT SUGGESTION is to be able to chose which mouse button to use for placing a stop order in the DOM.
Left click for limits and right click for stops is something that WE NEED.

Hi, again. I would like to ask if you have forwarded my suggestion to the developement team and if so, when it will be done.
I payed a 3 month subsribtion which will expire at the end of the year and most likely will pay another in january and if the things are OK i think to buy a lifetime subsribtion, BUT until then i have to trade, no matter the outcome and i need that feature(to be able to chose the strategy after reverse).
Right now i have the chart trader and the DOM opened simultaniously and i enter with my strategy via the chart trader and give the reverse strategy from the DOM, but it is NOT comfortable.
Also it is distracting, because i need to be focused on chart and the price action, not on the DOM.
Thank you!

Hi spitfire,
Thank you for your reply.
The suggestion has been sent to the development team.

A losing trade happened(as expected) because the lack of the function I need.
I realy need that function. I am a customer. I payed for 3 months and at the end of the month I will pay for 3 more, and then probably I will buy it, but to buy it, I have to make money TRADING. But to make money trading, I realy need that option!
