Yesterday the lindex exchange rate peaked at 400 acording to the market statistics, but my order for 10,000 Ld at 329 was not filled.
How come my order was skipped over ?
If the seller had sold 10,000 Ld to me at 329, for $ 30.40, rather than his top slice at 400 for $ 25.00 he would have got an extra $ 5.40.
Is there a glitch in the lindex system ?

Is there a glitch in the lindex system ? If possible the code was matching the rates of overlapping limit orders exactly when a new sell limit order was placed. Thus that L$400/US$1.00 sell limit order was matched to an existing buy limit order at L$400/US$1.00. I've changed the code to match the new limit sell order to the best existing limit buy order(s). This matches/mirrors the behavior of the three other combinations of order types. Thank you for bringing this to our attention! Cheers, Lawrence |
