The ticking history of the glass. - page 13

 
Реter Konow:
Well, that makes more sense. Although, the meaning and value of this information is vague. One sells at the price reserved earlier, the other at the market price. So the one at the market price is the initiator. OK. We need to add a clarification to the documentation, if that's what you mean.
The documentation is not a textbook.
 
rjurip:

Try to operate with the concepts of supply and demand. Maybe it will become easier to understand. An order in the glass is supply. A buy/sell order/bid is demand. The convergence of supply and demand generates a transaction, which is accounted for by the direction of demand.
Vitalii Ananev's explanationis more accurate.
 
Vitalii Ananev:

One buys on the market, the other sells by limit order. The initiator is the market bid, the limiter satisfies it (the bid).

If this is the case,TICK_FLAG_BUY must be changed toTICK_FLAG_BUY_MARKET_SELL_LIMIT.
 
Реter Konow:
The explanation fromVitalii Ananev is more accurate.

It is important that you understand...

The important thing is that you understand...
No, it is important that everyone understands. Therefore, we should ask the developers to name the flags properly. Otherwise, nothing is understood by a person who thinks about what he sees and reads.

TICK_FLAG_BUY is a tick resulting from a buy. Sounds like nonsense to someone who understands that there are no separate purchases and separate sales. There can only be buying and selling.

How can we tell from this flag name what it really means? That it is a buy on market and sell on limit flag? You can't. And so, the generation of modern traders do not understand the basic rules of market functioning, and their buys and sells happen on their own, independently of each other).

Your translation is wrong. Buy-teak flag. The resulting value consists of a set of flags. And this flag is one of its components.

No, it is important that everyone understands. Therefore, we should ask the developers to name the flags properly. Otherwise, nothing is understandable to a person who gives at least some thought to what he sees and reads.

Well, ask ) And also ask for a red light on a stoplight to be accompanied by instructions for road users). The exchange buying and selling algorithm is unified and does not require explanation in the name of the flag. Learn more about stock trading.

To your point "study stock trading better".

1 Orders in the market are always Limiters ONLY. Sell limit, Buy limit, Sell stop, Buy stop. That is, these are ONLY orders.

2. Bids are offers if they are higher than ask price, i.e. sell limits or lower if sell stops.

3. Bids are a demand if they are lower than the bid price, i.e. Buy limits or higher if Buy stops.

Bids do not create trades in any direction, deals are initiated by MARKET ORDERS, and it is they who move the price.

If there are more market buys than market sales and the supply is absorbed by the demand (limiters on sale meet market buys) the price will go up.

If there are more market sales than market purchases, and the volume of limiters below the bid price is less dense than the volume of market orders to sell, the price will fall.
 
In short, the trader who makes more market orders and whose volume exceeds the volume of the opposing side's limiters moves the price.
 

As always, the purely technical question will not be heard by the developers.

Я чего хотел узнать - не признак ли это какого-нибудь клиринга, И можно ли использовать тики с флагом 0x100?

Не служебные ли они?

He was inundated with tons of arguments about aesthetics in flag naming and the accompanying stream of "consciousness"...
