Our Order Types
Smart Execution
Continuous posting of order slices to order books of trading venues through algorithmic smart order routing.
Hard Limit Order
Limit order directly placed at trading venue(s) with a specific limit price. The order is being executed at a limit price if the market price on the trading venue(s) reaches the limit price.
Soft Limit Order
Smart Execution order with a limit price (cap/floor). The order is being executed as long as the market price is above (sell order) or below (buy order) the limit price.
TWAP (Time Weighted Average Price)
Smart Execution order with a fixed execution deadline, split into smaller slices per fixed time interval (can be defined by the client). If the interval ends without the slice being fully executed, a market order is executed for the remainder of the order.
Scheduled Post
Smart Execution order with a fixed execution deadline without a fixed time interval. The completion of the order can occur before the end of the execution deadline.
Stop-Loss Order
Stop-loss order directly placed at trading venue(s) with a specific trigger limit price. The order is being executed on the trading venue(s) as a market order if trigger limit price is reached.
Stop-Limit-Order
Stop-loss order directly placed at trading venue(s) with a specific trigger limit price. Order gets executed on the trading venue(s) as a limit order if the trigger limit price is reached.
Smart Stop Order
