    Is there a way in TWS to have 2nd order submitted automatically when the 1st order filled? The 2nd oder take opposite (buy/sell) postion to the 1st order(sell/buy) at different limit price.

    Could a bracket order do what you want? The first order would be the parent, the second order the child order. The child order becomes active when the parent order has been filled.

    Thank you! I found out that I can attach Target Order (Profit taker) to achieve what I want.
