Also how can I confirm my OCO orders are being used? Can I name my OCO orders?

For the Trading DOM, you need to set the Scale Settings >> Constant Range Scale Mode to Re-Center to the Last Price On Every Update. Refer to the following: Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Constant Range Scale Modes >> Re-Center To The Last Price On Every Update For the Chart DOM, refer to the following: Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Using Fixed Values for Top and Bottom of Scale Range Also how can I confirm my OCO orders are being used? Can I name my OCO orders?
As long as you are not specifically using a Client order type, then the orders are being sent to the exchange, in which case if they are displaying on your chart, then they were not rejected and are properly working. You can not "Name" OCO orders, at least not in terms of having that name showing up on the trade order line. But if you are referring to a Trade Configuration, then refer to the following: Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Using and Changing Between Different Trade Window and Attached Orders Configurations For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

We see two issues in your log: 1) "The order quantity for the parent is 1 and this is less than the total order quantity of 2 for the attached orders". You need to adjust your quantities to ensure they all match between the Attached Orders and the main quantity. Refer to the following: Attached Orders: Order Quantity Matching 2) "No position limit set for symbol". You need to ask your broker about this to have them set you up with limits.

It is preventing you from entering the orders. You need to ask your broker about it.
