Pasting order template from clipboard

[tom409]

Under "order entry tools" there is a button labeled "Paste order from clipboard". Before pasting an order I must copy it. And before copying it I must actually see it.
All my orders are for stocks. They are all bracket orders. What thinkorswim calls 'first triggers oco". So they have an entry and a stop and a target. They also mostly now have conditions.

The save order template option only show part of the order. Like this. FIRST_TRIGGERS_OCO 1 SELL MARKET/1 MU STUDY 'TMLSMA()... This does not appear to be something I can paste in and trade a complete bracket order. I need the rest of the ....

So can anyone tell me where thinkorswim is storing my advanced orders or show me a template for Bracket orders with conditions, So I can simply paste it into thinkorswim. Which I think will be easier and faster than recreating the same order over and over..

So again basically I am trying to find out the format for a bracket order with conditions so I can paste it.
Thank you

@tom409 If you have saved an OCO Bracket Order, whether it is a straight Bracket Order or a Conditional Order, it should be in your Right-Click Chart context menu under Buy Custom... Only standard OCO Brackets are displayed within Active Trader...

Thank you so much. That is so much simpler than trying to create new orders on the fly on a one minute chart.

Rad - Thanks for this. Piggybacking off this a bit -- I'm looking to create my own custom order for options that would trigger 20% stop below the last price and lmt stops (profit targets) above at increments of 30/65/150% Is this possible ? I'm a bit unfamiliar with the syntax required to express that (should that be possible) Assuming i'd have to create separate custom orders to match the quantity entered at the start of the trade....

Thank you!!
