1. Order Management System (OMS) module release – for STOP ORDERS and MORE
OMS module is under Modules --> OMS. It can keep placing orders to the market until the order is completed. The buttons on top with the chart icons are used to enter/duplicate/remove orders for staging, while the PLAY button activates the orders and the STOP button stops them – mouse over each button for details.
These orders can only be cancelled from the OMS module, NOT from the pending order window. The OMS module will cancel and replace orders as the market moves.
When adding orders, two key points:
A) What “Speed” means
Slow: Best bid price for buy order. Best offer price for sell order.
Normal: (Best bid price + Best offer price) / 2 –-> midpoint
Fast: Best bid price for sell order. Best offer price for buy order.
Fixed: Use the price specified by the user.
B) Price Indicator if Speed is Fixed
There are 4 types: Limit, Market, Stop, Stop Limit.
The properties key (blue hand holding paper) allows for selection on methods to send orders, in order of preference, percentage sent to a certain method, etc.
Please inquire with your group leader or sales rep regarding the OMS API for algorithmic trading.
2. Added a new option of Real-time T&S into Board View+. If it is OFF, Board View+ will not load T&S data for all the symbols in the list in real time. Right-click on Board View+, then click “settings”, and look for the option on top right.
The default is OFF. Users have to turn it ON and save/load the layout if they want to see the T&S data in Board View+ like before. When it is OFF, it can save a lot of bandwidth.
To set the updating speed during OFF time, go to Quote, then Level 1 Server Buffering. LOW setting means it will update frequently, in the range of 100ms. EXTREMELY HIGH means it will updateless frequently, around 2 seconds (20 times slower but still very frequent).
Genesis highly recommends you keep the Board View+ updating as slow as possible to conserve bandwidth. The new quote servers utilize a batching algorithm to send market data.
3. Added "Credit Suisse" route in Laser, which is a gateway to multiple dark pools. Please consult your group leader or rep regarding cost.
4. Bug fix that Laser crashes when it loads a layout file with more than 1000 symbols in Board View+. Bug fix when Laser crashes because of memory overflow. You should also see improvement in quotes during busy market times. |
