Back

Maximum allowed values of trades placed by authorized traders in a Proprietary Trading Group Separate Trading Limit account. You can set the following order value limits:

  • Dollar Value Per Order – The total value of any one order, in millions of dollars. For example, a value of .5 = a limit of 500,000 USD.
  • Net Dollar Value Per Day – The net value of buys and sells for an entire trading day, in millions of dollars. For example, if you bought 50 million and sold 15 million in a day, the net dollar value for that day would be 35 million.
  • Gross Dollar Value Per Day – The aggregate value of buys and sells for an entire trading day. For example, if you bought 50 million and sold 15 million in a day, the gross dollar value for that day would be 65 million.
