Trading Window

 Home  Previous  Next

The Trading Window is the main window for trading where you will have the full overview of all your orders, trades and the portfolios

you have access to. You will need access to the Infront Professional Terminal and connection to your broker to get access to the trading window.

 

The window can be opened by clicking on the Main menu > Tools > Trading. When the login window appears, you must type the

login and password provided by your broker. Note that this is not the same login as the one you use to log into the

Infront Professional Terminal. After you have successfully logged in, the Trading Window appears.

 

From the top of the Trading Window you can change your portfolio and Target Currency. The Trading Window has a total of five tabs.

You can also change the columns for each tab by right clicking on a column and choosing “Field Chooser”.

 

Orders

The orders tab shows the status of all your orders. An order can be either active or inactive; an inactive order is not sent to

the marketplace, while an active order is sent to the marketplace. As soon as the order is activated, it’s sent to the exchange.

The right click menu in the Order tab allows you to activate, modify, view or delete an order, or insert a new order.

 

Trades

Trades displays all trades for the selected portfolio. Usually only intraday is available. This tab shows TradeID, symbol, volume,

value, price and more for the executed trades.

 
Net Trades

Net trades will accumulate all buy and sell orders and show the net volume and values of all buy and sell orders per symbol.

 
Portfolio

Portfolio shows positions in the currently selected portfolio. Portfolio values such as Trading power, market value, total invested etc.

are retrieved from the trading service. There may be more values shown depending on what the trading service supports.

 

Log

All communication between Infront and the trading services are logged in the "log" tab. To copy the log files, use the window tool menu >

edit > copy, then paste the log to a text editor such as notepad.
