Exit Rules

In this version, only Multiple legs of exit strategy can be entered.

Qty - enter a fixed quantity for the exit orders or leave blank to create exit orders for all fills

Stop Ticks - number of ticks away from the entry price that you would like to place the stop order. Leave blank for no stop

Stop Type - the type of stop to use

oStop - Regular Stop Order

oStopLimit - Stop Limit Order

Stop Trail - Number of ticks to Trail the stop

Offset - Number of ticks offset for a Stop Limit Order

Stop Volume - Limit order qty to trigger the Volume Stop

Target Ticks - number of ticks away from the entry price you would like to place a target limit order. Leave blank for no limit

OCO - Check if you want the order to be OCO. Note that we follow the FOCCA OCO rule. If the provider does not cancel other order on cancel (e.g. CQG), then Jisgaw will cancel the other order locally.

 

Note that all orders are sever side with the exception of strategies that contain Volume Stops. Volume Stops are processed by the platform and are not server side orders. Also if an OCO contains a Volume Stop, that is also processed by the platform.
