I have a scalping ATM that sets the initial stop at 10.
I often put in both a long and a short order. Short on the downside, and Long on the upside.
These are not OCO orders as I want to manage that manually.
When the long and short orders are 10 apart and one hits, the Initial Stop of the one triggered is aggregated into the order with the order in the opposite direction.
For example:
Long at 110, Short at 100.
When the Short enters the Initial Stop of the Short is aggregated with the Long Order at 110 into just one order
the problem is...if I want to pull the Initial Stop of the Short closer to the price, it now has double the contracts, because it has been aggregated into the Long order. In this way I am unable to manage the Short Stop as a distinct order.
Is there any way to prevent this aggregation and to have two distinct orders at 110, one the Long Entry, and one the Short Initial Stop?
Thanks
