Post From: Server-side OCO-only vs. Bracket orders TS functionality

Pleaaase!

I have read the docs and know that Sierra Chart handles attached orders internally,if not specified otherwise. That's not what I am asking!

Everybody else around equates OCO (one-cancels-the other) to "bracket". But you don't. I looked over web and couldn't find people mentioning those as different..
And SC has very different attached-order rules/behaviors for Trading services that support server side OCO-only vs. TSs that support "bracket order" functionality.

I understood that a typical "bracket" order (as per SC) is a parent(entry) + (up to)2 attached orders(exits).
A typical "OCO-only" would be..2 (entries)? ...
Is "OCO-only" a specific case of a broader "bracket" definition?

IB is listed as supporting both.
Which "Management of Attached Orders when Trading Service Supports Server-side Orders" logic is applicable to IB?
