+. In **Keyboard Setup**, configure a Stop Script keyboard shortcut (e.g., **F1**).
+. Also in **Keyboard Setup**, configure a FlattenPosition Script keyboard shortcut with a percentage of your choice and enable the "Show Order Edit Box For Flattening" (e.g., **F2** with **50%**).
+. In the __[[stock window tool|Stock Window]]__, you would then press **F1**, set a trigger price, then press **F2**, and then press **Enter**.
-  * Click the cell for a given order configuration, and then press a new key combination to set a new keyboard shortcut.
+. The PPro8 client will then send the order request to the server. When the price triggers, 50% of the trader's position will be flattened.
