Snipe

Outright Futures, Futures Spreads, and Options. Limit order.

 

Method: Takes liquidity at a price level without showing size in a passive manner.

 

 

Algo parameters in addition to [Side, Size, Price]

          I Won’t Ticks [Default – 0]

o    If set to a negative number, the unfilled balance of this order will convert to a market order if, after a partial fill, the market moves against by the specified number of ticks.

o    If this number is a positive number, the algo performs as if it were a market-if-touched. 

o    If zero, this go-to-market functionality is turned off.

          Tick Offset [Default – 0]

o    Initial placement of child orders relative to Price. 0 means no change, -1 means one tick worse.

          Pause Between Orders [Default – 0]

o    Pause between orders in milliseconds

          Size Factor

This parameter tells the Algo machine to generate child orders with the size of inputted value * available liquidity on the best level.

Two examples:

o    Case 1: Size Factor = 0 (Default)

o   Placed 50 size order on 67.80 (CLEZ24) and there are 3 lots on 67.80. The order generates a child order with size 3 (all liquidity on desired price)

o    Case 2: Size Factor = 10 (Default)

o   Placed 50 size order on 67.80(CLEZ24) and there are 3 lots on 67.80. Our order generates a child order with size 30 (all liquidity on desired price * Size factor value)
