Cover Order Partial Booking

Is it possible to book partial quantity in cover order?
For example suppose I bought 100 quantity of reliance at 1400 .. I placed a CO for tht which a SL trigger at 1380 .. Now the stock moves to 1430 and I want to book 50 quantity at 1430 .. Is tht possible with CO?

    You can do it by modifying the orders after a partial execution has happened.

    I am talking abt booking partially using the API ..
    In CO can we book half the quantity when a certain target is achieved ?
    The other half will remain open and will be executed when the next target is reached..
    Is it possible in CO?

    You can either modify an order or place a fresh order with the desired quantity again.
    But make sure you are not hitting rate limits.

    ok let me phrase again.
    Suppose I placed an CO .. The first leg got executed .. So now for the second leg to exit half quantity in at a different trigger price .. and another half at different trigger price.

    Cos I try to do it from API it won't allow me to edit the quantity for the second leg of the order ..

    @hitman1980,
    No, you won't be able to partially exit the cover order position. When you modify the trigger price, it will be for the complete quantity.
