If you name your exit orders (i.e. ExitLong("XL") at 48.50 stop; -
that's for TS2000i, if you're using TS7 you'd just say Sell("XL")
I think), then each time the statement gets executed it simply
replaces the previous order. I think the same may be true of
un-named order; i.e. you can have only one active un-named order.
>2) cancel an un-triggered stop/limit order and start again.
Same as above. You don't need to cancel an open order, you can
simply replace it. If you want, replacing it with an order to exit
a long position at a price of zero, or exit a short position at a
price of 999999, will effectively cancel the order.
I'm sure others on this list may have better ideas.
