Trading With J-Trader<br />

Field<br />

+2 Profit<br />

+3 Profit<br />

Pull & Flatten<br />

Widen<br />

Tighten<br />

Enter or select<br />

i Tick the checkbox.<br />

ii In Steps (Ticks), enter the number of ticks away from the filled price at which the<br />

limit order will be placed.<br />

iii In Quantity, enter the maximum number of lots to be entered for this protection<br />

order.<br />

Once the +1 Profit target is met, any subsequent profit targets are activated.<br />

Pull all working orders, and place an order to flatten the current position. The flatten<br />

order will be for the current total position. When flattened, the position = zero, e.g.<br />

bought 70 sold 70. The flatten order submitted is a market order by default but can be a<br />

limit order type.<br />

To enable this button, tick the Reflector setting (page 21) Enable Flatten (Order Type).<br />

Pull all working orders and place an order to reverse the current position. For example, if<br />

the position in a contract is ‘bought 23, sold 18’ (ie, long 5 lots), J-Trader pulls all<br />

working orders for the contract and places an order to sell 10 lots to produce the reverse<br />

position of short 5 (bought 23, sold 28).<br />

To enable this button, tick the Reflector settings (page 21) Enable Reverse (Order Type).<br />

Move all protection orders (stop, trailing stop, +1 profit, +2 profit, and +3 profit) one<br />

tick:<br />

further from the filled price<br />

closer to the filled price.<br />

1 To activate the orders, tick Protection Enabled.<br />

The protection order volumes are displayed in Reflector in brackets e.g. (W 12).<br />

As the target profit levels are filled, the stop order quantity is amended down equally (as in One<br />

Cancels Other, OCO).<br />

2 The working order group moves from the Working to the Completed section of the Status screen<br />

once all of the protection orders are filled, cancelled or balance cancelled.<br />

Use the Status screen to amend/cancel the orders:<br />

Order type<br />

Parent order<br />

Protection<br />

Limit orders<br />

Protection stop<br />

order<br />

What you can amend/cancel<br />

Volume and price cannot be amended.<br />

Pulling the parent order cancels all related protection orders.<br />

Price can be amended.<br />

Limit order volumes can be amended.<br />

Pulling a protection limit order cancels that order only.<br />

Price can be amended. All additional volume is added to the stop order at the new<br />

price.<br />

The volume cannot be amended.<br />

(Trailing) stop component of the bracket order cannot be cancelled.<br />
