I have a tested strategy based on bracket-ordering.
no idea on API whatsoever, but I think I need API to submit multiple (maybe around 20) orders a day.
can someone help with bracket order API?

This is how i place bracket order through the C# sdk api, make sure you include the orderclass as bracket.

var order = await alpacaTradingClient.PostOrderAsync(
new NewOrderRequest(
sym, quantity, side, OrderType.Market, TimeInForce.Day)
{
OrderClass = OrderClass.Bracket,
TakeProfitLimitPrice = profits,
StopLossStopPrice = stoploss,
StopLossLimitPrice = stoplosslimit
});
