RE: [amibroker] Multiple Profit Targets in a single bracket order for TWS ???

[Rajiv Arya <rajivarya87@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

you do it as two bracketed orders
 
Order 1 buy 2 at 100
ORder 2 sell 2 at 105
Order 3 sell 2 at 95
Once order 1 is filled both of those two orders are active
Use the order id from order 2 to create a bracket around that  of sell 1 at 110 (2nd profit target) and move stop to 100 but both with an size of 1
you can only create the new bracket order after order 1 is executed, and don't forget to adjust the size of order 2 after exectution of order 1.
 
Order 2 of three will get cancelled when the other one is hit
 
Good luck

Subject: [amibroker] Multiple Profit Targets in a single bracket order for TWS ???

 

Hi all,

Does anybody know of a way in which a bracket order can consist of multiple profit targets.

Eg. if I'm long 2 contracts with an entry price of 100, I want to be able to submit a bracket order with ProfitTarget1 (for one contract) set at 105(LMT) and ProfitTarget2 (for one contract) set at 110(LMT). On the Stop loss side, I want to submit a STP order for 2 contract at 95 ?? Now in this case, if ProfitTarget1 is hit, TWS should amend the qty for the STP order from 2 to 1, to reflect the fact that there is now only one long contract.

Is this possible ????
