Crypto.com Exchange has launched the One-Cancel-the-Other (OCO) order type for Spot and Margin Trading. OCO orders enable users to perform trade automation during up and down market movements, so they can effectively take profits and mitigate potential risks.
OCO orders work by allowing users to place two orders at the same time. It combines a Limit Order and a Stop Limit/Stop Market Order, where only one will be executed. When any one order gets partially or fully fulfilled, the other will be automatically cancelled. Additionally, canceling one of the orders will also result in the automatic cancellation of the other.
For example, if a user enters a long position at the price of USD 100, they can set a Stop Order at USD 110 to activate profit-taking and Limit Order at USD 105 to minimise potential loss. If the price hits USD 110, the Stop Order will be triggered, and the Limit Order will be automatically cancelled.
