Threshold Triggered Order (TTO)

Specify two prices, an upper and lower price trigger. Once the market trades at either price, a market order is sent to the marketplace. This order type was designed to help limit potential losses and lock-in potential profits.

Additional Explanation: Many Forex traders want to place one price trigger to take profits and one to stop out of their position at the same time, and they want whichever order is executed first to cancel the other part of the order automatically. The best order type to accommodate this strategy is the TTO. This order type allows you to set both an upper and lower price trigger. The system will send out a market order for whichever price trigger is met first.
