Should I place a SMART or Direct order?

SmartRouting

Euro Pacific Trader (EPT) offers a feature called SmartRouting, short for “smart order routing”.

SmartRouting software continually scans competing markets and automatically routes orders directly to the best electronic communications network (ECN) or market center, based on price and with the goal of cost savings for you the trader. It also takes into account factors such as the availability of automatic order execution.

To use SmartRouting on your order, select SMART in the Destination field of your order ticket.

Direct Routing

Each ECN and market center administers its own set of trading rules.

If you do not select SmartRouting, you may “direct route” your order. Please familiarize yourself with the various trading and order handling rules of those market venues.
