How to modify a position volume
01 Apr 2019, 17:23

Hi,

Is there a way to modify an existing position to increase the volume i.e. to replicate when you click on Modify Position and then increate the Qty. (Add lots to the position).

I can see if I reduce the Qty I can close off x number of units to replicate a modified position being made smaller but how do I do this for increasing the volume.

Thanks

Ro

Hi Rowie,

You can use ProtoOANewOrderReq and specify the existing position you want the order to be added to in the positionId field.

Best Regards,

Thank you Panagiotis for the reply.

Is this still possible using API Reference 1.0? as I can't see the corresponding method in the outgoingMsgFactory class.

Thanks
