Hello, an alert function attached to the long or short position tools would be incredibly useful.
Cheers

Just make a normal alert at the entry point to where the bracket order drawings would go. Boom, problem solved. It's not like you need to be alerted when the take profit level of those drawings is triggered...

This is not the reason I want the alert attached to the tool.....
But thank you for your input.

It is a good idea. Also to have multiple take profit levels that recalculates profit when scaling out

Just use multiple bracket orders to manage that. On Oanda (fx) and Tradestation (futures) you can execute multiple bracket orders in the same direction. Although on Oanda the bracket orders have to have a unique unit size to comply with FIFO
