Order placement, complex options cross-instrument spread

Discussion in 'Interactive Brokers' started by misterkel, Sep 27, 2023.

  1. I'd like to place a single order across 2 instruments (one is an inverse of the other).
    There would be a vert call spread XYZ and another on ABC.
    Is it possible to do that in a single order so that it only triggers if the total price is met?

    You can do A conditional order in TWS with IBKR
     
  4. Can you elaborate on those two? I've never heard of this distinction.
    I assume you mean the various types of TWS / IBKR orders - icebergs, conditionals, brackets and all that by Broker Order?
    If so, which order type allows the marriage of two different ticker instruments into a single order?
     
  5. Yeah, I can't find anything that marries two instruments into one order.
