IBKR orders using preset configuration does not work

I need help to configure correctly IBKR,

I have been using IBKR. Lately, I discovered the configuration preset values for each type of securites.

However, when I invoke an order from Mosaic, it uses the number the number from the preset values but it ignores all the presets parameter attached to the Primary Order / Profit-taker and Stop/Loss Order. I have to fill manually the prices for each data entry

For example, I would like to issue a BUY order :

1) number of shares

2) type of order : LIMIT / bid price

It also does not fill the price for the Profit -Taker and stop loss

In Mosaic, IBKR indicates that there is preset configuration attached to the securities ( stock).

I looked at all the available you tube video but I could not find what is wrong with my setup.

Thanks in advance



 
My guess: the exit orders' limit prices depend on the fill price of the entry order: they are set at x% away from the fill price. However, the entry order is not yet filled, so those exit prices cannot be calculated.
