Post From: FXCM FIX MULTIPLE BRACKET ORDERS & P&L CALCULATION

I am trying to submit an order of 1,100,000 units on fxcm fix with 2 targets and one stop for all oco with move to breakeven at 6 ticks. I want to take profit on 550,000 units at 8 ticks and the other 550,000 should take profit at 50 ticks. everytime i place an order, it only submits one order of 550,000 units with one take profit at 8 ticks and one stop. even if i place the order twice at the same price, i still only see my size is 550,000 units with only one target at 8 ticks. my setup is...

Main parent order:
Limit
Quantity: 1100000
Time in Force: GTC

Targets:
Target 1|8T|Qty:550000|Lmt (Group: OCO Group 1, Quantity: 550000)
Target 2|50T|Qty:550000|Lmt (Group: OCO Group 2, Quantity: 550000)
Stop All|5T|Stop (Group: All OCO Groups, Move to Breakeven for Stop Type: Offset in Ticks Triggered, BE Level offset: 0, Trigger offset: 6, TIF: GTC)

Am i doing something wrong on the set up?

Also, when i am in a trade, the p&l will say something crazy, then when i exit the trade, the p&l reads normally. why is this? how do i get the p&l to ready normally as it does when i exit the trade?
