Page History: How do I enter a Pit Trade?

Compare Page Revisions

Open a contract window you desire to enter manual fills (pit trades) into.
Set your desired account and quantity same as you would for trading. Account on the main form and quantity in the contract window.
Double click on the price column header (attached image left) and you should see depth disappear and net change replaced with the word Pit (attached image right).
Now click to submit an order at the correct price. I suggest having an order book open in fill view to confirm what it is you are entering.
If an error is made your only choice is to offset the manual fill with another manual fill at the same price and quantity.
Once complete double click the price column header to get back to live trading mode or just close that contract window.
