Place multiple orders at once with IB?

Hello,

I am wondering if anyone know of a way to place multiple orders simultaneously on different instruments and different type of orders using IB?

For example, each time I want to go long on lets say TSLA short F. Ideally each time I place my trade using booktrader I would like the other orders to follow. Is that possible?

Thanks a lot!
 
I think this may be done via Alerts. You may create a rule that whenever you execute a buy on TSLA, then trigger an order to execute a sell on F. Problem is that the order size will be fixed... Not sure if this is what you are looking for.
 
Thanks, I will check out alerts better. It might be a good solution at this stage, I guess if I decide to move forward I will have to code it and move to the IB api, but I was not aware I could do that with alerts. Thanks.
