I place 2 trades in succesion for the same pair. The only difference is the takeprofit level. In the Journal the result is:

Waht happens is that instead of taking the first takeprofit both trades end at the second profit by bying one lot
Is there something I must do between the placing of the 2 trades so that they will be treated individually?
