When using Price Axis trading, I select Limit order. However MW still attaches the stop loss and take profit orders. In general config or in edit instrument, I see the order presets but I do not see how to disable or turn them off. When I watch the Tutorials, it seems that selecting Limit order should only create a Limit order. I am on Order Flow Edition version 6.6.10. It is difficult for me to think something like this would be broken, so I assume I am missing seeing some setting to disable. Thanks in advance for any help.

If you have an exit strategy selected in the DOM and the "Power Button" is switched on, it will automatically attach brackets.
The button the arrow is pointing to in the image below will be green if it is on.
You could also check this menu - Make sure it is set to a Limit order & not Limit + Stop + Profit.
Let me know if that works for you

@Donovan2580 Thank you for responding. I am not using the DOM. I checked it and the power button/attach is off. Also, I checked my menu choice and I am specifically only selecting limit order (no other add on orders).
Good news (for me) - It seems to be working OK now. I went back to the DOM and tried price axis trade entry with DOM button on/attach and with DOM button off/attach. That did not make a difference. That is good, as setting in the DOM probably should not impact my chart/price axis trade entry.
I think the issue was having the power button in the trade panel on. Now if I have that button off, I get just the limit order. If I have the button on I get the stop loss and take profit attached, even if I only select limit on the price axis. That seems OK and probably correct behavior.
I did not suspect the trade panel button as the cause because previously MW would attach the brackets from Edit Instrument preset, not the preset selected in the trade panel.
I think something was corrupted, and it got reset after my reboot.
So, all good, and thank you for taking the time to help
