Submitting the Orders from J-Trader
This section explains how to submit bulk orders, as explained in Submitting Bulk Orders (page 68). It
assumes that you already have a .csv file containing the order data, as explained in Format of the Input
File (page 68).
To submit bulk orders from a prepared .csv file:
1 From J-Trader’s main menu, select Tools Bulk Order Input.
2 Load the .csv file you want to use:
Either click Load, select the required .csv file, and click Open.
Or drag and drop the file directly into the Bulk Order Input screen.
You can add additional .csv files, using either method. The Bulk Order Input screen displays all
orders loaded.
3 If necessary, you can sort and filter (page 26) the list of orders. You can also adjust the columns
(page 27): i.e. change the selection of columns, reorder columns, and auto-adjust their widths.
Furthermore, you can change the colour scheme (page 12). For an explanation of the columns
available, see Bulk Order Input Columns (page 72).
To remove orders, highlight them (using Shift-click and Ctrl-click to select multiple orders) and
click Remove.
If you filter out or remove orders, you get a message:
