{{Quickfixn}} How to place a Stop loss and Take Profit in New Order Single

[Pavel]

Hi Javier

Answer to your question depends mostly on your exchange; QuickFix is a
library to construct/parse FIX messages, and each exchange has its own
specifics of messages.
Generally it should be something like the below:
QuickFix.FIX44.NewOrderSingle newOrderSingle = new
QuickFix.FIX44.NewOrderSingle(
                new ClOrdID(<your order ID>),
                new Symbol(<traded symbol>),
                new Side(<buy or sell>),
                new TransactTime(<...>),
                new OrdType(<e.g. OrdType.Market - see spec of your
exchange>);
newOrderSingle.Set(new Currency(<your currency>));
newOrderSingle.Set(new OrderQty(<order quantity>));
newOrderSingle.Set(new Price(<...>)); // usually not needed for Market
...

Once again, the above is just an example (for FIX4.4), which you need to
adjust to construct a message satisfying your particular exchange's message
specification.
So I guess if you follow the Exchange's documentation on how to fill the
fields in the message, it should work.

Regards,
Pavel
