OCO are convenient for bracket orders and exclusive entry for double setups. OCA is similar and quite useful for entering in different securities. Order attachment is useful for placing stop loss and take profit as soon as the entry order is filled (and those SL/TP orders need to be tied by OCO). I know IB supports this natively, but this could be made transparent to algorithms by having brokerage classes do this client side if server functionality is not available.
This is not a huge priority to me, since I can always create my own order manager, but I wonder if there are plans to support this.
Keep up the awesome work!
One cancels other or all, and order attachment

Thank you Dmitri, we're aiming to add new orders as quickly as possible. At the moment we don't support OCA but we've setup the system to handle this type of order (through contingent order id's). I personally used them for my trading so definitely understand how powerful they can be.
We make brokerage classes support it where possible; OCA's are a good candidate for client-side brokerage implementation since they aren't too speed sensitive. Its probably best to submit a git issue for this and it will be added to the stack sooner or later.

Hey Ming,
Lean does not have built-in OCO orders, instead we have to implement that feature ourselves. We can do this by using the OnOrderEvent method, which fires each time there is an order event. By keeping track of the order tickets for each order, we can cancel one order as the another fills.
For example, let's consider a situation where we enter a position with a stop loss and 2 take profit limit orders.
self.entryTicket = self.StopMarketOrder("AAPL", 100, self.stopBuyPrice)
self.stoplossTicket = self.StopMarketOrder("AAPL",-100,self.stopLossPrice)
# Enter limit order 1
self.profit1Ticket = self.LimitOrder("AAPL",-50,self.profitTarget1)
# Enter limit order 2
self.profit2Ticket = self.LimitOrder("AAPL",-50,self.profitTarget2)If our stop loss fills, we need to cancel both of our take profits. If our first limit order fills, we need to update our stop loss to account for the change in our position. If both our limit order fills, we need to cancel our stop loss.
Check out the back test below as an example.
