Blocktrader

Added a confirmation widget to Blocktrader that displays upon submitting a block trade.

Chart

Enhanced the chart by adding tabs to the widget.

Market Grid

Added "Roll instrument" as a right click menu item on contracts in Market Grid.

Monitor App

Risk Administrators that can publish manual fills for exchange-traded spreads. To publish a manual fill for a spread, when selecting a contract, choose the "MLEG" type. Note that once a position is published, the individual legs that make up the spread will appear in the Position window, not the spread name.

Setup App

When uploading data into Setup (Credit, SOD, Product Margin, etc), administrators can now choose to continue the data upload even if Setup detects errors (such as the file having accounts or products that are not in Setup). By default this option is unchecked and Setup will stop uploading data once it logs 20 errors.

Setup App

Added a new option for Account- >Settings- >Order Cross Prevention: Position Transfer (if best market price). When this option is selected, Position Transfer only occurs if the resting order is at best bid/offer or better. If the resting order is not at best bid/offer, the resting order may get matched and filled at the exchange while the aggressive order is in flight. For more information about Order Cross Prevention, refer to the User Setup help (https://library.tradingtechnologies.com/user-setup/TTUS_Acct_Settings.htm).

Setup App

The "Position Transfer" Order Cross Prevention Setting has been enhanced to include exchange spreads and strategies. Upon matching on price, synthetic spread and leg fills will be created for each account. Prior to this change, the aggressive spread/strategy order was simple rejected when a match was detected.

Setup App

The User Group management option has been relocated to be under the "More" left-navigation pane option.

Setup App

In Setup, introduced a "More" category to the left-navigation pane that contains shortcuts to User Groups, Counterparties, Authorized Trader IDs, and Organizations.

Spread Matrix

Added the ability to view inter-product spread prices and create synthetic spreads in Spread Matrix.

From the new 'Autospreader' section of the Add Tab dialog, users may generate a Spread Matrix using a previously created 2-legged, inter-product Autospreader spread.

Users can also create a synthetic spread display from the new 'Custom' section of the Add Tab dialog.

From an inter-product Spread Matrix, users can create and trade synthetic spreads directly from the Spread Matrix by left clicking on an intersection of 2 instruments, launching a Floating Order Entry widget and placing a trade. Once a trade is placed, the synthetic spread between the 2 instruments will dynamically become a spread in the Autospreader Config.

Alternatively, users may launch the Autospreader Config dialog by right clicking on the intersection of 2 instruments and selecting 'Edit Spread.'

Time & Sales

Time and Sales now only supports 5,000 instruments per each T&S widget for performance reasons. T&S widgets created and saved before this restriction was added will display an error message upon opening the workspace.

Time & Sales

Added ability to open order entry windows, e.g., Order Ticket and/or MD Trader, from a selected row in Time and Sales. Left click on a price will open the floating order entry window of choice (as defined in global settings), and the right click menu provides options for Order Ticket and MD Trader.

Time & Sales

You can now filter on Contract and Type columns in Time and Sales.

Trade App on TT (web)

Added an optional sound alert when a new order is submitted.

Trade App on TT (web)

Added ability to save group widgets as reusable custom widgets that can be launched from the widget menu and from search.
