Post From: No longer supporting CQG server-side bracket orders.

I was very much impacted by this as well and it caught me completely off-guard as I didn't know there were so many problems with CQG and server-side brackets.

A majority of my orders are limit orders that sit away from current price with stops and targets attached. My orders can fill while I'm sleeping, at work or just away from the computer. I need to have server-side bracket support. I was entertaining the CTS options, but with the standard connection, Sierra doesn't recommend using server-side brackets with it, although they at least support it. With the CTS Low Cost model, there is no mobile access to manage the pending server-side orders that are sitting on the Sierra servers. I agree with you that Sierra should have just put a statement out that they do not recommend it for stated reasons, but still allow them like they are doing with the standard CTS connection. In my view, staying on an older version of Sierra can only buy you so much time before it is necessary to upgrade.

In the end, I just switched to Gain Capital, which still has full support for server-side bracket OCO orders and a decent mobile app.
