Is it possible to, in ACSIL, specify that attached orders only activated upon complete filling of parent orders and not partial fills? How do I go about doing that? |

Oh no not at all. This would make no sense whatsoever. Gosh no one has ever asked us about this. This is inherently dangerous.

Let me try to explain what I want to accomplish. I want to be able to send an order of quantity 5. Once it executes, I want to be able to set 5 profit targets of quantity 1, and then 5 stops each also of quantity 1. Essentially I want a bracket with stops in OCO. How would I go about doing that? |

This can be done by making sure there are 5 separate Target and Stop orders set.

But according to your reply here: Quantity Distribution from Parent Order to Multiple Attached Orders in ACSIL If I have a parent order whose quantity is 5, then the each of the 5 targets and 5 stops have quantity of 5. What you are saying now is, if I have a parent order who has a quantity of 5, and I make 5 targets and 5 stops, then each of their quantities are 1? |

We misunderstood what you meant. We originally thought we you are referring to the target and stop orders having a quantity of 5 but we reread what you wrote and we understand it. This is the corrected response: Correction and update: The answer is yes. If you have 5 separate targets and 5 separate stops, and the parent order has a quantity of 5, each of the targets and stops will have an order quantity of 1.

I apologize for my lack of clarity in my question. I try my best, but it could always be better. I did not realize there was a misunderstanding, but I'm glad it was solved :) Thank you ! |
