There are a great many ways of setting stops, be it by price, points, pips, percentage, money value, levels, etc.
The platform (not the broker) only caters for price and points. For all other methods, one can create trading panels or assistants with the help of MQL programming of an Expert Advisor or Script.
There are already many such programs available in the CodeBase and the Market, if you wish to use a ready made one. If instead you wish to have one coded specific to your needs, then consider the Freelance section.
Because, there are just too many different "flavours" that people want, just as you have claimed that you don't like any of the ones you have seen.
So they left it for everyone to just get their own "flavour" to be coded the way they want it.
Yah I’m sure it can be made easier giving two options. By tick or by %. From the brokers. At least there’s a choice!! % would be so much easier when it comes to cfd trading
No, you're wrong! If you "stuff" all the "Wishlist" into the trading platform, the platform will become a huge clumsy hulk! That is why there is a powerful MQL5 language that allows you to program any of your "Wishlist".
Please remember, that each trader has their own preferences and not everyone is trading just CFDs. There are many types of symbols and markets.
Just as you are defending your preference, their will be others arguing their viewpoint which may be contrary to yours.
Please also note, that "tick" is not even an option currently. MetaTrader uses "point" when setting stops which can be different to "tick".
