I would like to place a limit order and initially deactivate it as a “reminder item.” Later, I would like to activate it. Is that possible? I have placed a limit order (including bracket) for 3 contracts. Now I would like to split it into 2C and 1C or 3x 1C. Is it possible to split it so that I can move the split orders to a new price level (including bracket)? |

I would like to place a limit order and initially deactivate it as a “reminder item.”
Later, I would like to activate it. Is that possible? We can think of two options for this: 1. Set the Limit order far away from the parent order so that it will not be touched by the market. Then adjust it as you want when the time is appropriate. 2. Do not send the order at all and use one of the "Send Attached Orders by Position/Price" order types to send the attached orders when you want to. Refer to the following: Order Types: Send Attached Orders - Position/Price I have placed a limit order (including bracket) for 3 contracts. Now I would like to split it into 2C and 1C or 3x 1C. Is it possible to split it so that I can move the split orders to a new price level (including bracket)?
The only way to do this would be cancel the existing order for 3 contracts and then use the "Send Attached Orders by Position/Price" to send a new set of attached orders setup the way you want.
