I have Sierra using T4 data feed with Dorman. When I place a simple bracket order entry (with stop + target), where the stop & target orders are located? Exchange? T4 server? My PC? And where can I define that?

Thanks!

They are initially held on the Sierra Chart side until the parent order fills at which time they are with the exchange . The OCO is managed by the T4 server.

Nice, thanks!

I have a follow-up question, though.

When in Sierra I have entry + target + stop, what kind order type is that Stop order? Is it StopMarket or StopLimit with some offset to make sure it's not run over?

You can choose through the Attached Orders interface on the Trade Window whether it is a Stop Market order or Stop-Limit order.

If you choose Stop-Limit than the offset is set on the "Set" tab of the Trade Window.

ok. But by default it is a StopMarket order, or...?

If the Attached Order as listed as "Stop" then it is a Stop market order.
