    Two OCO limit orders in same direction - is this possible?

    Using a managed order approach compatible with both NT 6.5 and 7 is it possible to place two OCO limit orders in the same direction (not one long, one short bracket orders) please?

    For example, I want to place a EnterLongLimit on a retrace to the MA20 and another just above resistance in the same OCO group with one being cancelled if the other is filled.

    I know I can do this with unmanaged orders, but I don't know if the internal order management rules prevents this with a managed orders.

    Thanks
    Chris

    Chris, those scale in's would not get trapped in the managed approach handling rules, you would just have to ensure the EntriesPerDirection would be high enough to allow it to happen -

      Hi Betrand

      This is not scaling in, but having two points of order entry, of which only one would be filled and the other cancelled as a part of an OCO group. There would only be one entry per direction.

      Does your answer still apply to this scenario?

        Yes, the key point is not attempting to work orders in the opposite direction while Exits, Sets or new orders are working.
