You can use a Limit Chase order for the parent order of a bracket order, but if the bracket order were to be rejected, the Limit Chase functionality ends at that moment in time. If there are any problems with the child orders this will not be changed in any way by using a Limit Chase order. While nothing is 100% certain, certainly using a server-side bracket order is going to be very reliable to a point where we think you should not have a concern about it other than to monitor what the automated trading system is doing. 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: This is not making sense with a way that it is written. We recommend that you use Attached Orders when you are submitting the main parent order in order to have a protective stop. This is the proper way to do this and will give you the best safety. If you are using the server side bracket orders with CTS, then this is reasonably safe. To use a server-side bracket order with CTS requires that you have both the Target and Stop order specified. Not just one of them but both. We really have answered enough about this, and there is not anything more we could really say. We think you making this far too complicated.
