Advanced order features
The CMC platform includes a range of advanced order features that facilitate control, flexibility and customization on your orders and trade execution.
Open, close and amend orders directly from charts and view levels against historical price action. Once a position has been opened, select the triangular trade entry icon on the chart and drag stop-loss and take-profit levels to change them.
One-click trading allows you to place trades immediately by choosing any streaming buy or sell price. Your usual default risk management and order settings will be applied automatically.
Control slippage in volatile markets by specifying a boundary price range in the order ticket. If the price at execution is outside this range, then the order will be rejected. Available on market and stop-entry orders.
Our price ladder displays prices for trades that are larger than what's available at the first bid and offer price. It lets you enter trades which you otherwise wouldn't be able to enter, with just one order, but with a wider spread.
Our automated trade execution ensures that positions up to our maximum trade size will always be executed through price ladder trading.
If a trade is in profit, you can use this unrealized profit to open new trades, thus taking advantage of other opportunities without having to close profitable trades.
Set default order preferences for all, or specific instruments. You can turn off pre-order confirmations and set last trade size, stop-loss and take-profit orders as default.
When you manually roll a forward to the next contract, you enter the new trade at the mid-price and save 50% on the spread cost. You can also set forward settlement behaviour to automatically roll over, so the rule is applied to all your forward positions.
