Topic: Reduce half position

Is it possible to sell half using limit sell?

For example i open 2 lots on breakout of bollinger bands high
and i want to sell 1 lot with 20 pips profit
or close both if under bollinger bands low (or 1 if the limit sell went thru)

You can ask Footon in his indicator thread if he can develop something for you.

Re: Reduce half position

FSB / FST will not do this. It's unclear what will happen with the remaining 1 open lot.

It sounds like 2 separate strategies. Both will open 1 lot at BB Upper Band. First will close on 20 pips TP or at Lower BB.  Second will close only on Lower BB.

It means that the seconds lot is going only on loss.

It's not really my thread, every developer welcome and needed! If I feel up to the task, sure I'll help as much as I can and contribute to FSB's project through it.
