does oanda allow opposite trading?

hi!
i have problem, i just found that my original long trade had been cancelled by the sell order. which basically means that you cannot have a long trade and a short trade open at once as 1 cancels the other.

the long trade was a long term trade and the short trade as a short term trade. what is wrong with having 2 trades in both directions.

i thought oanda offered this service!

The only way to do this in Oanda is by setting up a sub account , then you can trade in opposite direction. Each sub account has its own button so it's not too hard to switch back and forth. Hope this helps.
