Child order management

I am having a problem coding the following:
I enter two-target OCO bracket orders, but the child orders get mixed up between the two:

Example, I have an order at 8556 for 2 contracts with targets 4 and 10, so 8560 and 8566 respectively.
I also place another order below at 8550 with the same bracket, with targets of 8554 and 8560.

The problem I have is, whenever trade 2 target is reached ( 8554 ) it gets recorded as the first trade LOSS instead of second trade GAIN and cancels first trade's target instead of second one.

I hope I make sense, if not I am available over the phone to discuss.


Appreciate any help you could give me on this.

Certainly, each of these sets of orders are going to be functioning independently from each other. This is definite.

When it comes to the matching of order fills there is FIFO and LIFO. This may not really help you and there really is no solution for what you are looking for. For LIFO, refer to:
Chart Settings: Use Last In First Out Fill Matching (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)
