Much of the day-to-day use of CAST involves orders and positions. Customers want to know the state of their orders, whether their last orders made it into the system, and if they have any open positions. They may also need you to cancel working orders.
You can access order and positions data and functions through the Customer Service menu to:
•Power search, view current and old, modify, add, and cancel orders
•View and delete and positions
About archiving orders
The archiving of orders occurs when account statements are processed. There are three options for processing:
•process statements as received from FCM
•generate complete daily statement
•zero positions at the end of day
In all of these cases, order information is archived at the end of the day. If you ask that CQG process your statements as received, then information is archived only if the statement is received.
