Hi Support,

I connected sierra chart to my live FXCM trading account.
Now I want to send an order with a stop and a profit target via ACSIL.


In demo it all worked fine, but when I sent a live order, it was filled, but the stop and target that I defined
were 2 different orders in FXCM: SE order (stop entry) and LE (Limit Entry) order when looking at FXCM's Trade Station.

1. How can I send an order with a stop and profit that will match 1 order like in FXCM's trading station?

here is the acsil code I used for entering:


  s_SCNewOrder NewOrder;
  NewOrder.OrderQuantity = 1000;
  NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_MARKET;
  NewOrder.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GOOD_TILL_CANCELED;

  //Define the Attached Orders to be attached to the main Market order
  //Target 1
  NewOrder.Target1Offset = 10 * sc.TickSize;
  NewOrder.AttachedOrderTarget1Type = SCT_ORDERTYPE_LIMIT;

  // Common Step Trailing Stop
  NewOrder.StopAllOffset = 10 * sc.TickSize;
  NewOrder.AttachedOrderStopAllType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_STEP_TRAILING_STOP;
  NewOrder.TrailStopStepPriceAmount = 10 * sc.TickSize;

  return sc.BuyEntry(NewOrder);

Thanks,
Eyal
