Staged order ticket — bracket / OCO / TWAP / VWAP.
The staged ticket — bracket, OCO, TWAP and VWAP built before you send rather than improvised at the point of entry.
Reach for itWhen the exit matters as much as the entry, which is most of the time.
“The order ticket is where you set a symbol, side, size, type and price before sending an order to the broker.”

Top of the ticket: symbol auto-fills from workspace context (or click-load from any panel). Side: BUY / SELL / SHORT / COVER. Size in shares or contracts. Order type: MARKET / LIMIT / STOP / STOP-LIMIT / TRAILING-STOP.
Below the main ticket: optional bracket = parent order + linked stop + linked target. OCO = one-cancels-other (cancel the other when one fills). Build risk discipline INTO the ticket; don't rely on memory after entry.
For larger orders, the algo selector slices the parent into child orders over time. TWAP = linear time-weighted; VWAP = volume-curve-weighted; IS = implementation shortfall; POV = participation-of-volume. Each minimises a different cost.
Bottom strip: LIVE_TRADING_ARMED status. Defaults OFF — clicks fire in SIM mode against the internal matching engine. Flip to LIVE only when you've confirmed broker connectivity + sized the trade correctly. Sim-first = safety-first.
