Orders View

Introduction

The third tab of Autoshares Web Trader for iOS — Orders — is responsible for displaying the list of current orders of the current trading account: outstanding orders, filled orders, rejected, orders, etc. Here you can quickly inspect which of your orders have already been filled and which ones are under review or were rejected.

The layout of the tab represents a four-segment view that sorts all orders by their status:

1. All. This segment lists all orders of the current trading account.

1. Active. This segment displays only active orders, i.e. the ones that have been placed but not yet executed.

1. Filled. This segment displays only filled orders.

1. Cancelled. This segment lists cancelled orders, i.e. orders that have been cancelled by the execution venue due to some error.

Orders Tab Layout

The Orders tab lists all orders of the specified trading account. Looking closer at each order you can view the following information about the order:

• The ticker symbol of the order's underlying security;

• The current Mark price of the security;

• The transaction type (Buy, Sell, Sell Short, Buy to cover);

• The number of securities transacted in this order;

• The type of the order (Market, Limit, Stop Limit, etc.);

• The time at which the order was placed;

• Order status (New, Filled, Cancelled, etc.).

At the bottom of the screen there's a pull-up statistics view that gives you a visual breakdown of the number of active, filled, and cancelled orders along with their their corresponding percentage of all orders.

Swiping left, you'll see a more detailed breakdown of all orders by types. On the right, each order type will be represented by an Apple Watch-style circle showing the weight of the type in the whole.

To place a new order, you can tap on the Quick Trade text field underneath the navigation bar and enter the required ticker symbol. Next, tap on the required security and you will be redirected to the Trade View.
