Is it possible to split a takeprofit into 2 parts, limit first, then whatever remains into a market order 5 mins later?

 

I have the following bracket order,

ENTRY -> aapl limit buy GTC, conditionsCancelOrder=True, conditionsIgnoreRth = True -> $192.00 -> time conditional isMore=True, expires at 3:30pm
TAKEPROFIT -> aapl MIT sell GTC -> $200 
STOPLOSS -> aapl STOP sell GTC -> $190
CLOSE AT TIME -> aapl mkt sell GTC, conditionsCancelOrder=False, conditionsIgnoreRth=True, OutsideRth = True -> time conditional isMore=True, activates at 3:35pm

I wish to change my takeprofit into 2 parts and leave the rest of it intact, I want to do a LIT, LMT or darkice, order at 200 dollars. Then if it doesn't fill within 5 mins, I want to push the rest into a market or MIT order at 200. But if it happens at 3:30-3:34, the close at time should cover it and it should just market exit at 3:35.

So something like this,

ENTRY -> aapl limit buy GTC, conditionsCancelOrder=True, conditionsIgnoreRth = True -> $192.00 -> time conditional isMore=True, expires at 3:30pm
TAKEPROFITLIMIT -> aapl LMT/LIT sell GTC -> $200 
TAKEPROFITMKT -> aapl MKT sell GTC -> 5 mins later
STOPLOSS -> aapl STOP sell GTC -> $190
CLOSE AT TIME -> aapl mkt sell GTC, conditionsCancelOrder=False, conditionsIgnoreRth=True, OutsideRth = True -> time conditional isMore=True, activates at 3:35pm

Is something like this possible with ib/twsapi?
