Multibrackets
What is the Multibrackets add-on?
The Multibrackets add-on extends the functionality of standard bracket orders, automatically creating additional tiers of Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) brackets after order execution.
When you configure multiple tiers and your order gets executed, the brackets with the smallest tick size will be created first.
How to configure the Multibrackets add-on
The Brackets configuration panel contains information about the bracket tiers that will be created after order execution. TP/SL ticks define how many price levels will be used for the bracket tier offset. TP/SL size defines how many contracts will be distributed to each specific tier.
Multibrackets Enabled for
Bracket tier rules:
- At least 1 tier on EITHER TP or SL must be configured
- Any number of tiers can be added
- Total TP size must be equal to total SL size, whenever both have been configured
- Tick values cannot be the same. Tick values of 4, 6, and 6, for example, are not possible.
Configure SL as TP - this will make the SL tiers the same as the TP tiers.
Note: after any configuration change, the save button must be clicked for changes to apply.
