Post From: Using OCO Orders with Spreadsheet

Hello SC, I am currently trying to build out a spreadsheet trader. I have read through your documentation online, and have managed to create the required ENTRY formulas for both buy and sell. However, I do not want it to buy straight into the market when the condition is met. I would like to place a BUY LIMIT order at a SPECIFIC price for a buy entry and a SELL LIMIT order at a SPECIFIC price for a sell entry. I would like these order to be OCO and have the "STOP" (STOP order) and the "TARGET" (LIMIT order) placed using specific prices (or ticks, if not possible with prices). For example, using Gold (GCE). Let's say at any given moment my buy condition is met, I would like to place an OCO Bracket order. The BUY LIMIT entry at the close of the previous rotation (candle), and the STOP at the low of the previous rotation (number of ticks, or price). Is this possible? And how can I go about achieving this? Many thanks, Dean
