Hi,

I have read about setting attached orders and OCO groups, and I know how to attach OCO orders to an order. But I can't figure out how to do some more complex strategies, so I ask for help.

What I look for is the following. Lets say the price is at 2830. I want to put a sell stop order at 2825 and a buy stop order at 2835, so that if buy order is filled, sell order is canceled and viceversa. Then, if buy order is filled, a sell stop and a sell limit order have to be sent to the market, so that if any of them is filled, the other is cancelled. If the first order filled is the stop sell order, then the buy stop order has to be cancelled and a buy stop and a buy limit order has to be sent, OCO.

So, to summarize, what I need is to put two sets of attached OCO orders, so that the set itself be OCO.

Any help?

This is fully supported.

You need to use OCO Buy Stop and Sell Stop:
Order Types: OCO Buy Stop Sell Stop

And each of those will have Attached Orders attached to them if enabled:
