To modify the parameters of an entry or range entry order

  1. Do one of the following
  2. The Change Entry Order dialog box appears.



    To view a five-minute chart, click Chart.
    On the chart, you can see a line on the level of the selected entry order rate. You can change the rate by dragging the line to a new level of your choice.
    If the entry order has stop/limit orders added to it, you can also see the lines of the stop/limit orders if their rates are currently visible on the chart; otherwise, you can see markers at the upper or lower border of the chart.
  3. In the Amount (K) box, select or type an amount of your choice.
    The cost of one pip price movement and necessary margin for the specified amount are presented after the Per Pip and Usd Mr headings respectively.
    Note: Depending on the version of your trading station, you can see the Currency/Point box instead of the Amount (K) box in this dialog box. If necessary, you can change the Amount mode in the Options. For details, see the Change Amount Mode article.
  4. Depending on the order type, select the Rate and Range values as follows:
  5. In the Trailing box (optional), to make the order trailing, click Dynamic or Fixed. Otherwise, click None. If you click Fixed, in the adjacent box, select or type the trailing step size in pips. The available values are from 10 through 300.
    Note: The box appears in the dialog box only if the Trailing entry orders enabled option under the General Trading heading of the Options dialog box is set to True. If it is set to False, the Trailing box is hidden.
  6. Click OK.

Once the order is modified, the new values of the order appear in the Sell or Buy column and/or Amt(K) column of the Orders window.
