Modifying one order (changing the price, changing lot size) cancels the other order. It should only be cancelled if the order gets filled. Was really looking forward to a breakout OCO this morning upon CPI news.
Hi @samalam,
Thank you for your post. After looking into this, I do not believe this is a bug, but its very hard for me to say with the information you provided.
As it stands currently, using a bracket/OCO order will automatically place a take profit or stop loss order with the exact order quantity as your entry order. If you modify the price by dragging your SL/TP orders OR modify the quantity, the orders still remain linked as an OCO.
I made a short video to demonstrate this, please look at the working orders panel down below and you can see under the order type column, that just because I modify a price or quantity, the linked nature of this order has not changed.
If this is not your same experience, a video demonstrating the steps you took to encounter this issue would be extremely helpful so we can provide you with feedback.
Thanks,
Jake

By “breakout oco” I was referring to a specific type of oco: a buy stop above the highs of a range, and a sell stop below the lows of the range, linked as an oco. Don’t care which way it goes, just fill the order when it breaks out. In the video I just fiddle with it until it breaks.

The type might not have been clear. I put linked OCO in the title and breakout oco in the text.
