hello,
this is a work in progress for me...but you can get idea from below code.
// CODED BY PADHU ON 08/08/2007
ibc = GetTradingInterface("IB");
STOP=1.3665;
LIMIT=1.3705;
BuySTOP=1.3695;
TICKS=1;
JPY_TICKS=0.01;
Broker_Symbol="EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH";
Quantity=25000;
//
ibc = GetTradingInterface("IB");
if( ibc.IsConnected() ) // check if connection to IB was successfull
{
// BUYSTOP to enter a long position followed by a TRAILINGSTOP LOSS ORDER
//parentID=ibc.PlaceOrder(Broker_Symbol,"Buy", Quantity,
"STPLMT",Limit,Buystop, "GTC", False,100,"" ); // place order but do not
transmit yet
// ibc.PlaceOrder(Broker_Symbol,"Sell", Quantity, "TRAIL",0,STOP, "GTC", True,
100, "", parentID);
}
if( ibc.IsConnected() ) // check if connection to IB was successfull
{
//parentID = ibc.PlaceOrder(Broker_Symbol, "Buy", Quantity, "STP", 0, BuySTOP,
"GTC", False,TICKS );
// ibc.PlaceOrder(Broker_Symbol, "SELL", Quantity, "LMT", LIMIT, 0, "GTC",
False, TICKS, "", parentID );
// ibc.PlaceOrder(Broker_Symbol, "SELL", Quantity, "STP", 0, STOP, "GTC", True,
TICKS, "", parentID );
// Bracket order // place order but do not transmit yet
//parentID = ibc.PlaceOrder("GBP.JPY-IDEALPRO-CASH", "SELL", 25000, "STP", 0,
238.55, "GTC", False );
//ibc.PlaceOrder("GBP.JPY-IDEALPRO-CASH", "BUY", 25000, "LMT", 238.00, 0,
"GTC", False, 100, "", parentID );
//ibc.PlaceOrder("GBP.JPY-IDEALPRO-CASH", "BUY", 25000, "STP", 0, 239.25,
"GTC", True, 100, "", parentID );
//LimitBuy = D1+A1;
//parentIDLong = ibc.PlaceOrder(Name(), "BUY", 1, "LMT", LimitBuy, 0, "DAY",
False );
//ibc.PlaceOrder(Name(), "SELL", 1, "LMT", LimitBuy+B1, 0, "DAY", False, 1, "",
parentIDLong );
//ibc.PlaceOrder(Name(), "SELL", 1, "TRAIL", C1, C1, "DAY", True, 1, "",

// BUYSTOP WITH TRAILINGSTOP ORDER
//parentIDLong=ibc.PlaceOrder("EUR.NZD-IDEALPRO-CASH", "BUY", 25000, "STPLMT",

// ibc.PlaceOrder("EUR.NZD-IDEALPRO-CASH", "SELL", 25000, "TRAIL",1.9450,

Subject: [amibroker] Bracket Order with IB Auto-Trading interface
Hello - I am trying to create a Bracket Order with the IB Auto-
Trading interface. This would be like this:
- Buy if price reaches x
- If price reaches x and buy order triggered, enter a stop loss sell
order at y
Can anyone help with how I would do this?
Thank you,
Alex
