I want to be able to place market orders with an fx account where there will be a stop and a limit (the limit may or may not be specified depending on the circumstance). I tried various ways of doing this with the sendocoorders but nothing is accepted.

Can you provide a quick overview of what the code looks like to implement a market order with a stop and a limit?

I do not send related orders, just unlinked market order. Review https://gainfutures.com/api/html/9900566b-260a-4247-8326-9698b013e7b8.htm and scroll down to section

One-Send-Others and One-Cancel-Other

Placing of OSO (or bracket orders) requires only to replace a method SendOrder(OrderDraft) to SendLinkedOrders(OrderDraft,OrderDraft[] ) for OSO and to SendOCOOrders(OrderDraft[]). All other functionality remains the same.

OCO and OSO orders have links to each others:

Parent for reference from a dependent order to the main one

Linked for reference from the main OSO order to dependent ones

OCO for reference from one OCO order to another
