To do this, for a Buy Entry with a Stop, you would need to do the following:
- Cell K3 needs to go to "False" after the initial position has been created.
- The J column cell associated with "Limit or Stop Price - Buy Entry (K)" would need to be set to the price at which you want to enter the Stop.
- The J column cell associated with "Buy Entry: Order Type. M=Market,L=Limit,S=Stop,SL=Stop-Limit,MIT=MarketIfTouched" would need to be changed to the type of entry you want (Stop or Stop Limit).

After the above is setup properly, then cell K3 would need to go to "True" in order for the order to be placed.

You then need to ensure that the cells reset back to what you need to open a new position when that occurs.
