The Contract Ticket is used for rapid order entry. Preconfigured volumes reduce the need to change a contracts volume between the submission of one order and the next. Hit Bid and Hit Offer buttons submit orders against the best bid and best offer prices without having to click a specific price. Joining the best bid and best offer is simplified by enabling price tracking. |
The Contract Ticket can be enabled from the Trading tab of the Contract Properties. |
Contract Ticket configurations are on the Ticket tab of the Contract Properties. |
