IBKR - Scale Orders - API

Hi,

i would like to send scale orders to IBKR. I have already spoken to IBKR, they said it is possible to send scale orders by API ( look at attached Photo, IBKR TIcket ).

I have some experience with C++, so i would try this. Perhaps you have a example about a existing simply Limit order for the IBKR API? This would help me a lot.

If you say this might be possible to implement i would study this problem. But if you have already tried it and its impossible, please give me a short explanation of the problem.

Thanks
Tom

Sierra Chart has no support for this specific TWS order feature.

Sierra Chart does have this Scale In functionality, not sure if this is what you would want though:
Attached Orders: Scaling In

Otherwise, you just need to work directly with the TWS API and that is not within the scope of our support. This would not involve Sierra Chart at all. There is no way you can get Sierra Chart to submit this type of TWS specific order attribute.
