Trading Coinbase on TT Mobile iOS
TT Mobile iOS supports trading on Coinbase, which is a regulated, U.S. based exchange for trading cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. You can view market data for Coinbase instruments in MD Trader and submit orders using MD Trader or the Order Ticket.
Coinbase Market Data on TT Mobile iOS
When viewing Coinbase market data in MD Trader, consider the following:
- Fractional working order quantities are supported in the Bids and Asks columns. LTQ is also supports fractional quantities.
- Empty price levels can be hidden to show only available prices.
- Prices can be displayed with a custom tick interval per
price level. - Quantities are displayed with three decimal places of precision with a “+” displayed in the fourth decimal place when there is additional quantity available.
- Market data is displayed in a continuous 24 hour cycle and not daily or per trading session as follows:
- Net change — Shows the net change in price of the instrument in the last 24 hours.
- H (High) — Shows the highest price for the instrument in the last 24 hours.
- L (Low) — Shows the lowest price for the instrument in the last 24 hours.
- O (Open) — Shows the open price for the instrument in the last 24 hours.
Floating price ladder
Empty price levels can be hidden to show only available prices at each price level by configuring the Order Settings | ONLY SHOW AVAILABLE PRICES setting in the MD Trader
widget.
When set to “Yes”, only price levels with available liquidity are shown.
Note: This setting removes the static aspect of the ladder, which may result in orders being submitted at a price level different than the one you tapped if prices move while submitting the order.
Price consolidation
You can consolidate prices at specific tick intervals by configuring the Order Settings | TICKS PER ROW setting in MD Trader.
When configured, aggregate order quantities between each tick interval are displayed at each price level. For example, a tick interval of “100” entered for BTC-USD results in prices ticking in 1.00 increments.
Quantity display
By default, quantities are displayed with up to four decimals of precision. If a quantity is larger than four decimal places, a “+” is shown as the fourth decimal to indicate additional quantity (e.g., 1.357+).
If the quantity is a whole number (e.g., 0.4369) or if the remaining digits are “0” (e.g., .0100), only four decimals will be displayed.
The following fields display quantities with up to four decimal places: MD Trader working order cells and LTQ, as well as net positions in MD Trader and the NET column in the Positions widget.
