Description: A bracket is essentially two OCO (One Cancels the Other) orders. A pair of orders - Profit Target and Stop Loss - is placed as defined, and once one of the pair is filled, the other is canceled automatically. In the case of a partial fill of one of the orders, the number of contracts for the reciprocal order is reduced accordingly.
Parameters: Profit Target and Stop Loss are defined in points.
