Hi,

In the case of a market order taken with an OCO server bracket, Sierra sends the new single order, and then the OCO targets/stops using prices it computes using the last known bid/ask, to anticipate the expected fill price.

However, the DTC server is not aware of the actual trader's intentions in the matter of target/stop number of ticks, it only sees the calculated stops/targets prices. If there is slippage, it can't correct the OCO prices.

Could it be possible to send the sierra anticipated fill price in Price1 or Price2 of the market order, so the DTC server can reconstruct the actual trader's target and stop ticks ?

Thanks

This is already supported in the latest version of Sierra Chart and supported on the Sierra Chart LMAX Demo DTC server.

The expected market order price is set into Price1.
