A single merchant shouldn't give you any problems unless it's somehow spotted your scope. When you built the mission, did you start yourself within range as often it takes some time for a ship to gain speed and get on track if you put yourself too close at mission start.
Most of us find even TMO easy after we play it sometime and do what we can to make it more difficult....Really, TMO isn't that hard, most of us that play it can destroy convoys and TF rather easily, often people can score 100K tons per patrol....just got to learn it and how to react.
