Market orders are created when a trader wants to open a position at the current market price. After the trader clicks on a price, he or she must confirm the price prior to execution. The price sent to the dealing desk will be the price shown in the confirmation window the moment the trader accepted the trade ForexGen will execute the trade in real-time if the available price is at or within a few pips of the requested price. Once the order is executed the opened position instantaneousely appears on the client’s trading platform.
If the market has moved and no price within a few pips of the requested price is available, the dealing desk will send the client a requote at the most current market price. The client can then either accept or reject the requote. Orders will never be executed at the new price without the client’s prior consent. This means that there is never slippage on market orders. Slippage is defined as the difference between the price approved by the client and the price at which the order is actually executed.
In an attempt to decrease the occurrence of requotes during fast moving markets and to help guarantee effective market entry during major jumps in market price, ForexGen has introduced a Trader’s Range feature in its VT Trader software. The Trader’s Range option allows clients to automatically approve requotes within a chosen range. For example, if Trader’s Range is set to 10, requotes within ten pips of the requested price will be processed without requiring the client’s confirmation. Please note that because orders placed by trading systems are classified as market orders, they are subject to requoting as per market order processing procedures.
