Post From: Multi Target Order with Trailing Stop

Hello,

I've followed the "example 4" in the Same Trade Configuration Doc, but if my FIRST target is set to 4T, and the Trigger Offset is set to 4 Ticks- then if my order doesnt print at +4 Ticks, but the market does- it triggers my trailing stop before my order gets executed.

What is the best way to accomplish the following?

OCO 1 - Target 4 Ticks
OCO 1 - STOP @ 8 Ticks
OCO 2 - Target 8 Ticks
OCO 2 - Trailing Stop at 8 Ticks, then once Order(OCO) 1 FILLS, it moves to breakeven +1 and continues to Trail at 4 Ticks behind Market price?

I've tried for about 2 hours, but keep getting strange behavior of it triggering too early.

I've read the Doc thoroughly, but I cant get around this +4 Trigger happening sometimes BEFORE my OCO 1 gets filled.

Any ideas would be great!

Dion
