Placing DMA orders on SETSqx (market maker stock)


Ricky66

Question

Hi,

I have tried to place a limit DMA order with a market makers stock CSSG and not able to click proceed (greyed out) during auction period or open period. This is the case with any market maker stock. Other stocks however I am able to place DMA orders and the proceed button is not greyed out, see attachment. I am trying to understand why this is the case. Are you not able to place DMA limit orders on market maker stocks?

I have only just started to use DMA so any help/info would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Ricky66

Until seeing your post I had assumed L2 dealer displayed the order books for only SETS stocks.  (for the small data feed charge, I thought that was fair enough..)

Searching via the main L2 menu will return a drop down, but clicking does nothing. No pop-up.

Searching via an already open L2 order book will return nothing, only SETS stocks

Just requested our account opening team double check your permissions. I think they've changed something which may resolve this. Please restart L2 dealer and try again. Thanks.

Yeh I remember this question from a while back. You can’t place LO’s on MM stock as their prime broker doesn’t support the functionality. 

Thats only dma tho and otc with IG should be fine.

Thank you Panda. You are right about LO on MM stock but strangely cannot place limit order of any kind not even on quote price. Attached standard dealing ticket screenshot. I know a limit buy or limit sell is available on any other platform I can think of. Surely IG offer this on any stock outside of DMA??

@JamesIG , I just this second restarted and all is working. Many thanks.

@Caseynotes , Some nice information. I actually went back through the PDF and picked up on a few things I missed first time. Always worth another look.

On a slightly related note, ADVFN provides a L2 guide that is worth a read. Excluding the few pages specific to their platform, It also includes a brief intro to level 2 history, market depth, supply/demand, market timing, auctions ect. A fairly well thought out reference. Not sure if I can link here, but it's googles 1st result for "Level2Explained.pdf advfn".

All the best.
