There is the Move to Breakeven for Stops functionality for Stop Attached orders. This is documented here: Attached Orders: Move to Breakeven for Stop It will not cancel any stop orders though. But the stop orders would get canceled once the Target orders have been reached and filled.

How do I get a OCO Triggered STOP order? Doesnt seem to be that option. Attached orders was ticked. When I put TRIGGERED STOP order on with attached orders ticked, I thought it would be OCO. What am I doing wrong here? thanks |

It sounds like you have not actually created any Attached Orders and using them properly.

Thank You. Fixed (im pretty sure). SCALED OUT enabled, was the issue I believe. Once I turned off scaled out - everything worked as I wanted it to.

So there is no way to SET BREAK EVEN at a PRICE POINT using attached orders? Shame. I really need this. I can’t use trigged stop because if I am partially filled then that’s obviously extremely dangerous having stops in the market with no limits, while I’m asleep. I’m guessing its just too hard to program? |

We are not really understanding what are asking about. If you are using Attached Orders, and have specified a Stop Attached Order, then this is a safe trading configuration. And there is also the Move to Breakeven for Stop functionality: Attached Orders: Move to Breakeven for Stop Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Ok I am hoping I have sorted this out. OCO TRIGGERED MOVE TO BREAK EVEN 1 OCO group. 1 target 1 stop scaled in. Multiple contracts. Let’s say I BUY 10 contracts. I now have sell stop and sell limit attached. I then want to get break even at a certain price point above. so I am thinking the best way to do this (because I don’t want to / can’t pre define in ticks) is to then set 1 contract sell limit order at the price point I want my move to break even triggered. THEN when that 1 contract limit order is filled my MOVE TO BREAK EVEN is triggered? Is that right? Thanks . Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-01-23 22:33:01

It sounds like you are making this much harder than it needs to be. First, there is the ability to Move to Breakeven for attached stops. You can set this by specifying a number of ticks from the original order price. There is nothing more to do than to set this option up as you want it. Refer to the information here: Attached Orders: Move to Breakeven for Stop If the Move to Breakeven as described in the documentation referenced above does not work for your situation, then we would need to know why so we can understand what you are trying to accomplish, then we can help you further with that.
