Post From: limit chase with bracket OCO, and MIT attached orders at CTS

I'm a little confused now. I was told above that "chase" would work with parent orders in bracket OCO's. So, the bracket OCO would be managed by Sierra Chart until the parent is filled or not, and I have a real position (#4 post above) or no position. I'm just trying to figure out the safest way to automate my trading. Until now, I've been just sending a parent and then manually attaching the stop, but I'm hoping a bracket OCO is better. It sounds like there's no 100% full-proof way for Sierra Chart to enter without the possibility of a naked position (no stop loss)? If that's true, then how can anybody even auto-trade? Is there an example I've missed regarding how to attach a stop to a naked bracket OCO that filled without a stop? If that's technically feasible then it should be easy to just find the parent ID (either walk the order list or save it in a persistent variable). But, then is attaching a child order later doable? I want to attach a child to an OCO, but see the docs explain how to modify an existing OCO instead: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ACSILTrading.html#ModifyingOCOOrders Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-07-23 20:45:11
