Hidden

A Hidden order (generally a large volume order) shows no evidence of its existence in either the market data or the deep book.

To create a Hidden order

  1. Display the Hidden field on an order management line:
  • Hold your cursor over a field in the order row fields until the green “+” sign appears. Click the “+” sign to show the list of order fields.
  • In the Order Attributes category, select Hidden. The field is added to the left of the selected field.
  1. 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).
  2. Check the Hidden  field.

     

  3. To transmit the order, click the "T" in the Status field.
