DMA order partially filled


tripplex

Question

I attempted to buy 1,500 shares using a DMA Limit order at price less than the current offer price to reduce the spread. I set the order to expire at close of day. The order was partially filled and I ended up with just 109 shares. I would rather the order was either completely filled or rejected. Is there a way I could have done this?

Hey @tripplex

Thanks for your question.

Here are the order types. You can do a 'Market order' however you have no control over the price your shares will be filled at. 

As you know the limit and stop orders can be partially filled so this may not be the best option for you. 

At quote orders means your order will be immediately executed if you choose to accept it. You can put in the number of shares you want to buy and the market maker will offer you a price that you can either accept or reject. 

I hope this helps. 

All the best

Thanks for the reply. I was actually trading using DMA on the Level 2 app and attempting to get a price nearer the sell price than the buy price due to the large spread on this particular share. There are different order options in DMA so was checking if there were any that would allow me to place a Limit order which would only execute if it could be completely filled.

    • Selecting a good crypto exchange is far beyond checking their web visits. Security, integrity, transparency, customer protection fund and period of reserve is one thing users must consider in addition to regulatory compliance.
    • In less than a month, the crypto global mcap has surged from $1.1B to $1.7B and daily trading volume from the epileptic $40M to now $90M - $100M indicating adoption and inflow of capital into the cryptocurrency market. Cryptocurrency exchanges have been bussing with newbies signing up and buying different types of crypto they feel will surge as Bitcoin and other altcoins prices continue to gain significantly. The token that has really impressed me personally is JTO. With the current market condition, I think this is an opportunity for exchanges to leverage and attract new users by dishing out beneficial events to users in order to further encourage mass adoption. Do you share the same sentiment or you have divergent opinion? Let's discuss.
