It took some digging but I was able to find the functionality I wanted.
I am working on a new strategy that requires putting on a trade very quickly when I see the setup. Having the Trade Bar ready to put on a position and a stop by OSO was part of it. Sometimes I want a fixed stop and sometimes I want a trailing stop. I opened a second Matrices in a separate Desktop and sized them down to see only the Trade Bars. Now, with a single click, I can put on a position, buy or sell, fixed or trailing stop or any combination.
By the time I got the Trade Bars worked out the market was only open for another 2 hours, 22 minutes. According to the Trade Manager Analysis I took 1 long, 5 shorts with 4 winning trades for a total of 6.5 points (MES). Total time in the market, 1 minute. Longest period with no position was 1 hour, 12 minutes.
I will keep working on the strategy. Looks promising.
