I don't really understand what this means, specifically how it differs to server-managed OCO, and I've read everything I can on Sierra Chart's website about it. My understanding of server-managed OCO... Example: When I place a buy-stop order above current price (with stop-loss and take-profit orders attached), the 'parent' buy-stop goes instantly to the exchange, and the two attached 'child' orders are sent to an intermediary server, waiting for the buy-stop to be filled, at which time they too are both sent to the exchange. Then, if the take-profit is eventually filled, the intermediary server cancels the stop-loss order (OCO). So what is an example of how server-managed brackets work? Thank you. |

I'm with AMP and want to use Sierra Chart's Teton Order Routing, but AMP does not yet support it. Can you answer my question from the perspective of Teton? Thank you. |

This is correct: Example: When I place a buy-stop order above current price (with stop-loss and take-profit orders attached), the 'parent' buy-stop goes instantly to the exchange, and the two attached 'child' orders are sent to an intermediary server, waiting for the buy-stop to be filled, at which time they too are both sent to the exchange.

Great. So we've established how server-managed OCO works, in the form of an example. Could you please now do the same for server-managed brackets? I don't understand the difference. Thank you. |

The description you gave is exactly how a server managed bracket order works.

Okay, thanks. So if an order routing service only offered server-managed brackets, the trading software would still manage the OCO function on the trader's local computer. Is that correct? |

There is no service that Sierra Chart supports which offers only server managed bracket orders and not server managed OCO orders.
