I was messing around with the mobile app the other day trying to create OCO orders and it does take some getting used to, there are a lot of options. On the desktop it is very easy with the Active Trader. I have not been able to find a mobile app manual. For your trailstop I would guess the three fields would be: MARK/MARK/-3.0 for a $3 dollar trailing stop. In the mobile app you can switch on a button so the orders show up on the chart so I would guess the input then look at it in the chart to see if it was right. A bit of trial and error but it's usually what I do in papermoney to learn the platform.
