Stop Limit attached question

Hello, is there a way to attach multiple stop limits, when I hit the Buy keyboard shortcut? For instance, I buy at $10.00 and the attached order puts two Stop Limits at $9.00, and $8.50 to lower the chance of blowing past my stop, without risking a market order? I know there are OCO orders but it's a bit slow without the keybind. Thanks |

Yes through Attached Orders: Attached Orders: Using Attached Orders and Attached Order Settings You need to add two stop orders and each one needs to be in a different OCO group, 1 and 2: Attached Orders: OCO Group (Group) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

When I do that, the window turns red, as if waiting for another target order. But even if I add an another target order and link it to OCO group 2, the trade window acts as though it doesn't exist. I'm using a custom trade shortcut to make the initial trade, if that helps.

Attached is a simple example of what im referring to. The first picture works fine and is green but once I add a 2nd stop, it turns Red and does not work even if I add a target or two. The 2nd stop even defaults to oco group 2.

You need to increase the quantity on the first tab of the Trade Window to 2.

I don't think I worded the original question properly. That does change it green but I want the attached order to sell at one stop or the other, not both. So basically I want them both on oco group 1 but the window won't allow it. Setting a stop limit to "all oco groups" doesn't work either.
