Hi all;

I'm planing to modify NewOrderSingle message of Fix 5.0SP1 and make it possible 
to attach multiple triggering instructions to an order. A possible usage 
scenario for that is a profit target limit order which has 

- a stop loss trigger attached that modifies original limit order to market 
(effectively acting as a OCO bracket order)

- a time trigger which will again modifies orig. order (lmit->market) (e.g. 
close the position if it's not closed either profit target or stop loss till 
hh:mm) (i know that this needs some custom fields)

Actually one may extend the possible scenarios easily. So, i think that it's a 
good idea and i was pretty surprised that TriggeringInstruction of current 
specs is not a repeating group avoiding one to attach multiple triggers. 

So i wonder if am i missing sth.?
