Hi,

I have 2 questions. First question. Can you set a conditional order that if price trades at a certain price you can buy or sell on a limit? An example would be if es trades down to 1800.00 you want to sell on a limit at 1805.00. Second question. Is it possible to place an OCO order on the condition that if price trades at a certain price then the OCO order will be placed?

Thanks,

There is not built-in support for this, but you could create your own custom trading study to do this. Help with this is outside the scope of our support. Refer to this page:
