OCO Order - One Cancels the Other ?
An 'OCO' ('One Cancels the Other') Order is a special type of Order where
a Stop Order and a Limit Order in the same market are linked together. With
an OCO Order, the execution of one of the two linked Orders results in the
automatic cancellation of the other Order. |

IF DONE Order An IF DONE Order
is a two-legged order in which the execution of the second leg can occur
only after the conditions of the first leg have been satisfied. The first
leg, only a Limit, is created in an active state and the second, which can
be a Stop, a Limit, or an OCO, is created in a dormant state. |

Loop Order? ? A Loop Order is
a perpetual or repeating order placed in anticipation of a cyclical movement
in the market. It is a pair of matching orders where the first leg is active
and the second dormant. When the desired price is reached for the active
order, it is executed, the dormant order becomes active, and a new order
(a copy of the one just executed) is created in a dormant state. This process
repeats until the order is explicitly cancelled. |
