Issue with attached orders on OCO Limit and Stop

Dear ladies and gentlemen,

I've the following issue I'd need your help with please:
If I'm using attached orders with Limit- or Stop-orders everything works perfectly fine - as expected. If I am placing an OCO Limit and Stop Order I'd like to see that either for the Limit or Stop-Order (depending which one is triggered and which one is therefore cancelled), the attached orders are placed as well - but they are not! Although the checkbox "Use attached orders" is checked.

Let me give you an example: imagine I'm placing an OCO Limit and Stopp Order to buy 2 pieces at 10.000 (Stop-Buy) and 9.900 (Limit-Buy). If the order is triggered at 9.900, I'd like the order at 10.000 to be canceled (that's why I'm using the OCO Limit and Stop) and in addition my attached orders to be placed (in my case one stop-order to manage my risk and two limit orders to manage my targets). As mentioned before - if I do this with seperated Stop and Limit-Orders, the attached orders are working perfectly - but I need to remove the "not triggered" order by hand which is can be painful in fast-trading situations.

Could you please support me in getting the OCO Limit and Stop Order with attached orders working?
Thank you very much in advance!

Regards, Markus

This Order Type does not support using Attached Orders with it. If Attached Orders are set on the Trade Window they will not be used.

We could add this capability, and we will make a note about this, but it may be some time before we get to it. Probably at least a month.
