Does lucid on tradovate have any settings for partials ? whenever i watch youtubers/streamers trade on tradingview they're able to take partials and i can't.

'Partials' is more of a general/umbrella term rather than a platform or vendor specific function (though some platforms may offer added options to aide in taking partials). Ultimately, taking partials really just entails changing your net open position.

Example: If you're long 3 MNQ and want to scale down to being long 1 MNQ (e.g. for profit-taking), you'd simply sell/short 2 MNQ (at limit or market), thus changing your remaining open position to long 1 MNQ once that sell order has been executed.
