Send OCO bracket to position without ATM strategy

[bboyle1234]

Hi,
If I have opened a position without an ATM strategy, and want to send a bracket OCO order to it so that I can walk away from the computer, how can this be done?
Many thanks, Ben

Thank you for your post.

If you have an open position without a strategy, you need to add a limit and stop order to protect the position.

• Set strategy to<none>
• Right click in the DOM and enable OCO order
• Then place a limit order where you want to exit at a profit
• Then place a stop order where you want to exit at a loss
• Then right click again and disable OCO order
