Hedging from 2 different accounts has some major flaws : balance split in 2, double margins locked, account transfers at LMAX are manual requests (there’s no interface to do it your own instantly, not practical to eventually equilibrate the 2 accounts). These problems add up

From a single account, say that I trade with parent/bracket orders both sides. Is there a way that the resulting OCO (stop and target) orders remain active even when my position turns flat ? I would not mind to track the hedge this way, since I don’t need to rely on entry levels, neither track independant open P&Ls

Yes you can test this in Trade Simulation Mode. Just enter both a buy and sell parent order with Attached Orders and they will both be active at the same time.
