Previewing manual fill and SOD changes

By grouping a Positions widget with the Position Manager, you can preview manual fill and SOD changes before they are published.

Previewing manual fills

To preview manual fills:

1. Group a Positions widget with Position Manager in manual fill mode.

   

2. Click a cell in each of the following columns:
   • Contract — Find and select a contract by using the product search or market explorer. The settlement price for the selected contract appears in the Price column.
   • Account — Select an account for the manual fill. This is a required field for a manual fill.
   • User — Optionally, select a user for the manual fill. Only users assigned to the account are displayed in the dropdown menu.
   • Side — Select which side of the trade to apply the manual fill. Click "B" for Buy or "S" for Sell.
   • Quantity — Enter a quantity for the manual fill.
   • Price — Enter a price for the manual fill or use the default settlement price for the selected contract.
3. To create additional manual fills, click + Add and repeat the previous Step.
4. Before publishing the fill, preview its impact on your open position in the Positions widget.

   

5. Click Publish.

   Note: When publishing a manual fill to offset a spread position, no offsetting leg positions are created. When you publish, you are only publishing a spread fill; it has no impact on the legs. You will need to publish separate manual fills to offset the leg positions if needed.

To preview SOD modifications:

1. Group a Positions widget with Position Manager in SOD mode.

   • Account — Select an account for the manual fill.
   • SOD — Modify the SOD position.
   • Use Settle — Select whether to use the current settlement price for the contract.
   • Price — Enter a price for the SOD or use the default settlement price for the selected contract.
3. To create additional SODs, click + Add and repeat the previous Step.
