Post From: Changed from TT to CQG - stop placement and bracket orders help

I have just changed from TT to CQG and would appreciate clarification of how best to proceed with order types.

To open a position with TT I would place a limit order with a bracketed stop and target - this was managed on the server so if I lost internet connection and then was filled my stop would still be placed on the exchange.

With CQG I understand the bracket order is all client side so if I place a limit order and then lose my connection and am subsequently filled I will have no stop loss in the market - is that correct?

I place orders by clicking on the chart DOM. Is there a way of setting up an order configuration so that when my limit order is placed on the exchange a stop order is also placed on the exchange automatically a set distance from the entry price? I can't see a way of achieving this on CQG without using client side brackets.

Many thanks
