I am new to the platform but I am quickly getting used to it. One thing I'm having trouble with is being able to create an OCO order independent of a parent order. Specifically, I would like to set a "break out" bracket; one that will set a buy stop below and above the market price. Another, example would be creating an exit bracket for an open position without having to add to the position (i.e. limit/stop with no parent order.)

I'm able to do it for sell orders but not buy, am I missing something again? It's a buy stop order above market and a buy limit below, in theory
