TT Premium Order Types
TT Scale POV order
Overview
TT Scale Percent of Volume (POV) Premium order type tracks and reacts to real-time market volumes to target a user-defined dynamically adjusting participation rate. The value of the participation rate varies between the user-defined minimum and maximum values and is based on real-time market conditions.
TT Scale POV Premium Orders allow the trader to set a minimum and maximum participation rate as a percentage of the volume traded in the market. TT Scale POV orders continue to submit child orders to match within the range of this volume percentage until the parent order is completely filled.
Note: At this time, TT Premium Order Types are not available in the Prod-SIM environment.
Prerequisites
Prior to using any TT Premium Order Type, your administrator must enable access by updating the settings at the user level in the User Account Permissions settings or at the account level using the Account Restrictions settings in Setup.
