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!

your +4tick order do not get filled at +4ticks (roughly, i ignore the order queue) but on a +5 as it gotta tick through (bid/ask related). so you may end up setting your trigger to +5 andreas |

In the Attached Order settings we see you are not using a trailing stop but the Move to Breakeven for Stop settings are correct.
