Submit Complex Order

postAccountsAccountNumberComplexOrders

post/accounts/{account_number}/complex-ordersMoney-moving

Money-moving. Dry-run first, send an ext-client-order-id, and confirm before submitting. See Idempotency & retries.

Base URL: https://api.cert.tastyworks.com (Sandbox) · https://api.tastyworks.com (Production)

Submits a new complex (bracket) order from the supplied parameters. Supported strategies are `OTOCO`, `OCO`, `OTO`, and `PAIRS` (`BLAST` is deprecated and unsupported). OTOCO and OTO orders include a `trigger-order` that routes immediately; the remaining `orders` stay in `Contingent` status until the trigger order fills. Run the dry-run endpoint first to validate the order.

  Details of the order's impact on the account's buying power, including the change in buying power and its direction. A JSON object (upstream types this field as a string; attested responses return this object, with decimal values serialized as JSON strings).
- closing-fee-calculationstring
  An estimate of the fees to expect when later closing the position this order would open. Provided as a convenience; not applied to this order.
- complex-orderobject{10 fields}
- errorsarray<object>{3 fields}
  Preflight errors explaining why the order failed validation, each with a `code`, `message`, and `preflight-id`.
- fee-calculationobject{10 fields}
  An estimate of the fees the order would incur if filled, broken into regulatory, clearing, commission, and other categories and totaled at the end. A JSON object (upstream types this field as a string; attested responses return this object, with decimal values serialized as JSON strings).
- notesarray<object>{4 fields}
  Informational notes about the order, each optionally including a `url` for more detail.
- orderobject{42 fields}
