Order matching type

The matching type determines the orders that are closed when an offsetting buy or sell order is executed.

Use the drop-down arrows to select one of these values:

FIFO: First In, First Out. The first order filled is the first order offset when an order on the opposite side of the market is executed.

HBHS: High Buy, High Sell. The highest buy is matched with the highest sell. You must select both an intraday and historical (daily or longer) matching scheme.

LIFO: Last In, First Out. The last order filled is the first order offset when an order on the opposite side of the market is executed.

If you select Match intraday first, the system matches the previous day’s open positions and intraday fills in a single pass, unlike FCM end of day statements, where intraday trades are matched first and then intraday leftover is matched against previous close positions.
