18
ORDER TYPESA market order is an
order to buy or sell an asset at the bid or offer price currently available
in the marketplace. When you submit a
market order, you have no guarantee that the
order will execute at any specific price. MARKET-ORDER
Click the Ask price to create a BUY order, or the Bid price to create a SELL order.
In the Type field select MKT as the order type.
To transmit the order, click the "T" in the Status field.
19
ORDER TYPESA Stop order becomes a market order to buy or
sell securities or commodities once the specified stop price is
attained or penetrated. A Stop order is not
guaranteed a specific execution price.
STOP-ORDER
Click the Ask price to create a BUY order, or the Bid price to create a SELL order.
In the Type field select STP as the order type.
Enter the Stop Election price in the Aux. Price field.
To transmit the order, click the "T" in the Status field.
20
ORDER TYPESA Stop Limit order is similar to a stop order in that a stop price will
activate the order. However, unlike the stop order, which is
submitted as a market order when elected, the
stop limit order is submitted as a limit
order. Use the Lmt Price and Aux. Price fields on the trading screen to enter orders requiring
multiple prices or values.
STOP-LIMIT ORDER
Click in the Ask Price field to initiate a BUY order, or the Bid Price field to initiate a SELL order.
Click in the Type field and select STP LMT as the order type.
Enter the Limit price in the Lmt Price field.
Enter the Stop Election price in the Aux. Price field.
21
ORDER TYPES
A market if touched order is designed to buy (or sell) a contract when the market goes below (or above) the current price. The Aux. Price value is the trigger to
submit the market order.
MARKET-IF-TOUCHED ORDER (MIT)
Click the Ask price to create a BUY order, or the Bid price to create a SELL order.
In the Type field select MIT as the order type.
In the Aux. Price field, enter the "touched" price to trigger the order.
To transmit the order, click the "T" in the Status field.
22
ORDER TYPESA trailing stop sell order sets the initial stop price at a fixed amount below the market price. As the market price rises,
the stop price rises by the trailing amount, but if the stock price falls, the stop price remains the same. When the
stop price is hit, a market order is submitted. Reverse this for a buy trailing
stop order. This strategy may allow an investor to limit the maximum possible
loss without limiting possible gain.
TRAILING-STOP ORDER
Click in the Ask Price to initiate a BUY order, or the Bid Price to initiate a SELL order.
Click in the Type field and select TRAIL from the dropdown list of order types.
Enter a value in the Trailing Amt field.
23
ORDER TYPES
A One-Cancels-All (OCA) order is a combination of separate orders that are worked in conjunction with one
another in the marketplace. A customer enters orders as part of an OCA group,
and when an order is executed, the remaining orders in the group are canceled. If an order is partially
executed, the remaining orders in the group are reduced proportionately to the amount that was executed. If an
order is canceled before execution, the remaining orders in the group are
canceled.
ONE-CANCELS-ALL ORDER (OCA)
Display the OCA Group field on an order management line:
On the trading screen, create an order (click in the Ask Price to create a BUY order, or the Bid Price to create a Sell order).
Identify the order as part of an OCA group by entering a group name in the OCA Group field (you can use any descriptive name that you want).
Transmit the OCA order by clicking Transmit Page on the Order menu
24
ORDER TYPESClick the "Ask" or "Bid" price of
an asset to create an Order Management line.
On the right-click menu, select
Attach and then select Bracket Orders.
Verify that the order parameters are correct.
Transmit the order.
BRACKET ORDER
Bracket orders are designed to limit your loss and lock in a profit by "bracketing" an order with two opposite-side orders. A BUY order
is bracketed by a high-side sell limit order and a low-side sell
stop (or stop-limit) order. A SELL order is bracketed by a high-side buy stop (or stop-limit) order and
a low side buy limit order.
25
ORDER TIME IN FORCEThe time in force for an order
defines the length of time over which an order will continue
working before it is canceled. We support many time in force selections ncluding those
described below.
