Hi,

When using Triggered Trailing Stop as a PARENT order in ACSIL, which member correspond to the trigger price and which to the stop price?

NewOrder.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_TRIGGERED_TRAILING_STOP_3_OFFSETS;
NewOrder.Price1 = <stop price>;
NewOrder.TriggeredTrailStopTriggerPriceOffset = <trigger offset>;

I can't seem to find on documentation how to set the trigger price when using Triggered Trailing Stop as a parent order.
Thanks

We need some time to update the documentation for this.

We apologize for the delay. The documentation is now updated. You need to use Price2 for the trigger price:

Price1 sets the Stop price.

Also if you wanted to use a Triggered Trailing Stop-Limit order you will need version 1592 or higher. There was a change required to support setting the trigger price in the case when this order type is used as the main order.

No, you do not have to update in the case of a Triggered Trailing Stop order.
