When I am using the TT mobile trading platform, I can place any limit order I like in any market. However I have noticed that if I place a limit in say an illiquid calendar spread, sometimes it fills. Basically it let's you set your own prices in certain markets, if they are thin enough.
Trading Technologies allows limit orders in illiquid markets, and I'm still getting partial fills?

I'll have to wait for the markets to reopen. The platform does seem to give accurate volume and tick data, but I notice the order entry can be different to other brokerages I have used. I have heard TT is one of the best though, so that's why I've been keen to practice trade with them.
Hello @Con1991. Please enter a ticket with TT support for a detailed explanation on how TT's simulation works.
Thank you-

Thank you Patrick I will do that. I am using demo and notice there is a sim as well, not sure of the difference between the two.

Maybe an accurate demo;
much more likely to get partial fills/more slippage+ wider bid ask in semi liquid markets,even more so with market orders...….....................….....................…...….....But some real good trends happen in semi-liquid markets.
I've been through this with the OP in other threads. If he does not have implied pricing enabled, he will not be able to see the exchange supported orders for the dated expiries. The exchange supported spreads account for the vast majority of traded volume and bids and offers for the dated expiries.
