here's one I just noticed. You can set up a hotkey to move your stop up to breakeven plus commish.
For instance on ES, if you regularly use 3.5 stops (14 ticks), but you like to move it up when the mkt is 2 pts in your favor
set up the big tick hotkey to 15 ticks
then all you have to do is highlight stop hit the bigtick hotkey and hit transmit. Beats the heck out of hitting the 1 tick 15 times. Or re entering, because this way you keep your OCA in place.
By the way, that's what I'm talking about when they say, "never let a profit turn into a loss"
