Bracketing after placing the trade

[giogio1]

I often find myself in a position and I want to add the bracketing afterwards.
Similarly I often have the open position and a stop in place and I want to add a profit and connect OCO to the stop already in place to create a bracketing.
How do I do that, is it possible?
Thank You

Hello,

Thank you for your post.


Glad to assist. If you have an open position without an ATM strategy, and you wish to add a limit and stop order to protect the position please follow these steps:

• Set strategy in the strategy selection drop down box to a value of
• Right click in the SuperDOM or Chart Trader and enable OCO order placement by selecting the menu "OCO Order"
• Then place a limit order where you want to exit at a profit
• Then place a stop order where you want to exit at a loss
• Then right click again and select the menu "OCO Order" to disable the OCO order placement

Now you have a target and a stop placed protecting your open position, and when one of these orders is filled the other will be canceled automatically.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.
