Yeah, I know . Pity I did not tell you sooner.
But then, I never use that parents and contingents order - too messy.
When you know a trade is coming, eg you are on the 3rd candle of an evening star or the 2nd candle of a dark cloud or engulfing, and you are waiting for the next candle (the entry candle) to open, you can do some preparation.................
Click the "new order" icon and set a stop loss - set it umpteen pips away from the price action so it will never be activated.
Leave it there lying in wait, ready to pounce when you need it.
When you enter a trade at market using the "direct deal ticket", all you have to do next is shift that stop loss into position.
That takes all of one second - I will show you how very soon.
