Betting Enhancements

Fill or Kill bets

By setting the optional parameter ‘TimeInForce’ on a limitOrder submission to the value ‘FILL_OR_KILL’ and optionally passing a minFillSize value, the Exchange will only match the order if at  least the specified minFillSize can be matched (if passed) or the whole order matched (if not).  Any order which cannot be so matched, and any remaining unmatched part of the order (if minFillSize is specified) will be immediately cancelled.

Please note:  the matching algorithm for Fill or Kill orders behaves slightly differently to that for standard limit orders.  Whereas the price on a limit order represents the lowest price at which any fragment should be matched, the price on a Fill or Kill order represents the lower limit of the Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) for the entire volume matched.  So, for instance, a Fill or Kill order with price = 5.4 and size = 10 might be matched as £2 @ 5.5, £6 @ 5.4 and £2 @ 5.3.
