Bracket Trade...

[funk101]

Here's my strategy. The ER2 is rotating sideways, I want to put a Stop Limit Order above where I think the market will breakout with an auto trail strategy LONG in case the market breaks to the upside, AND I want to put a Stop Limit Order below market where I think the market will breakdown with the same ATM strategy in case the market breaks to the downside. I can put on one side of the bracket, but I get an error when trying to put the other side of bracket on. I can only enter one leg with an ATM strategy the other leg has to be a regular Limit Order without ATM strategy, right?

Both legs can have a strategy attached.

You can accomplish a breakout/breakdown approach by:

Right click in the SuperDOM and select the menu "OCO Order" to enable this function
For your first order, select the desired option from the "ATM Strategy" drop down list
Submit your stop order to buy above the market
For your second order, select the desired option from the "ATM Strategy" drop down list
Submit your stop order to sell below the market
CRITICAL Right click in the SuperDOM and select the menu "OCO Order" to disable this function

I'm trying to set up an OCO Bracket Order in Chart Trader, following the above steps. However, when I attempt to place the sell stop order, the order is rejected with the following error message : "You can't submit an exit order to a strategy until any of its entry orders has been filled".

Assistance, please.

Please re-select your ATM strategy before submitting the second entry order.
