Add a Break Even Feature
Jeff Prout
After hitting a certain profit target but not the full take profit, it would be nice to have the stop move up to break even.

We added a new breakeven action that can submit an order using the avg entry price of the open position. More info here https://docs.traderspost.io/releases/old-releases/march-21st-2026

Hello - TradersPost already shows the average entry price of the position (calculated by the brokerage). What would you have your breakeven function do?
Are you looking for a button that would say, cancel all open orders and submit a new order to close the position at the breakeven price (plus $X commission per quantity)?
Or perhaps a setting where TradersPost would automatically cancel/execute trades on your behalf once the position market value reaches X%?
Are you wanting to replicate a feature from another platform?
There's another feature request titled "Add a Break Even Feature" -- is that what you're looking for?

Agree. Currently I send a buy order with stop limit attached, then after the parent order fills, I cancel the stop limit order and replace it with a trailing stop limit order. TradersPost does not support trailing stop limit orders so I have to login to my brokerage (IBKR) to submit these orders. Even if TradersPost supported trailing stop limit orders, my brokerage does not support attaching any type of trail order to a parent order. I am baffled this functionality is not already available!
