A signal with three targets can become one order or three. It changes quite a lot.
As many orders are opened as the signal has targets, splitting the volume between them. Each has its own target and they all share the stop.
In favour: you close in parts and lock in profit earlier; combined with stop-to-entry, after the first target the rest runs with no risk.
Against: more trades, more commissions, and if price runs far you make less than if everything had been left on the far target.
A single trade with one target. You pick which: the first, the second, the last, or one of your own.
In favour: simple, cheap, easy to follow.
Against: all or nothing.
If you open several, you decide how the volume is divided. Equal parts is the norm. You can also load more into the near target, which is the one that gets hit most often.
If your risk works out to 0.01 lots and you want three orders, you do not get three: 0.01 is the minimum at almost every broker and cannot be split. The copier detects this and tells you instead of sending an invalid order.
When it happens you have two ways out: raise the risk, or open a single order. With small accounts, a single order is usually the sensible choice.
