BBook-execution set up

BBook-execution set up


Please note! A more detailed and visual description of the setup steps is available in the guide on Aggregator Settings and Instruments Availability.

1. Creating Aggregator settings for the BBook account.

Account source type = Indicative should be selected, because this type of account needs only indicative prices, which will be executed inside the platform.

Account ID - here it is necessary to select the provider account (Real), from which the price flow will go to BBook account and further to the accounts of clients, who have BBook-execution configured.

Important: All Account IDs of Real accounts, which receive prices for the required instruments, must be added to the setting.

It is also necessary to enable the BBook executor setting for all added Real accounts - this will allow orders to be executed and will also open additional settings. Click Edit to make the necessary changes and turn on the BBook executor:

  • Group orders interval (ms) - if less time has elapsed between orders with the same trade side and volume for the same instrument than the time specified in this setting, they will be grouped and executed together.

  • Same price interval (ms) - guarantees that if between the orders with one side of the trade and volume for one instrument less time has passed than the time specified in this parameter, such orders will be executed at the same price.

  • Execute any volume - allows accounts with this aggregator setting to close positions regardless of liquidity in the stack.

  • Override instrument sets - allows to set individual settings for each instruments group (after saving changes in the current sidepage):

    • separate Schedules - schedules of the trading calendar.
    • separate Order type set - set of order types available for trading.
    • Active sessions - sessions available for trading. If no session is selected, all sessions will be selected as available for trading.
    • separate MPI (Minimum Price Increment) - minimum possible price change.
    • separate Min. order size and Max. order size.
    • Stop limit prohibited range - prohibits placing SL/TP orders close to the market price. If the price in the order is closer to the market price by a value greater than the value specified in this field, the client will not be able to place the order.

When finished editing, press Create or Save to save the created / edited setting.

Please note! You will not be able to trade on this account, as it receives only indicative prices. For trading, you need to create a separate account (or select an existing one) and apply the setting from the next step to it.

3. Aggregator settings for the accounts with BBook execution

Next, it is necessary to create the Aggreagtor Setting for the accounts of clients with BBook-execution. In this setting it is necessary to select Account source type - BBook, and in the Account ID field - select the internal account for BBook-execution (created at the previous step).

Please note! To trade on BBook, it is mandatory to have this setting applied to the client account.
