OCO orders
Posted: Jul 27 2009
I have some questions on OCO orders.
1. What's are the commands to send and cancel an OCO order from a study?
2. Can a bracket OCO order be made so that when one of the orders is partially filled the other order's quantity is automatically reduced by the same amount?
3. Are the OCO orders sent to IB as real OCO orders, or does MC simulate them by keeping track of the market and subsequently sending the appropriate side of the order to IB? In the latter case, if I exit MC the order will no longer be valid. In the former case, the OCO order is handled by IB independent of any action by MC, or any loss in Internet connection, PC failure, etc.
