Post From: Can't find the right Order type...

1. How does this answer the question? If you are referring to the fact that, that particular order type does not support Attached Orders, all that means is that you cannot attach Target and Stops to the Limit order and also to the Stop order. If this were the case, you would end up with at least 6 orders being added to the order list. When one of the parent orders fills, its Attached Orders would become active and the other order in the OCO group and its children would be canceled. This is not what you are looking for. This is the reason why that order type does not support Attached Orders.

There are two methods to do what you want. The other method is to Send Attached Orders by Price.

Here is the documentation for that:

We have reviewed and updated the instructions. It should be very straightforward to do this.

2. We have referred users many times to the documentation of sending attached orders independent of a parent order. No one has pointed out the documentation was not clear or at least did not comment on it. Generally they do not come back with more questions. Nevertheless, we have clarified it some more.

3. Yes it is. It is in the list of order types on the Trade Window. It is right there at the bottom. You should not miss it.

4. OK, but please reevaluate based upon what we have said above.
