Creating TT SIM Credit Limits and Product Limits
You are viewing TT User Setup Version 7.17 and higher. For earlier versions, click here
TT User Setup supports TT SIM mode trading using existing gateway logins and user profiles. Gateway logins and user profiles are configured as usual, with the following exceptions:
- If you want the credit limit to be higher or lower for TT SIM trading, you can set a different TT SIM credit limit for gateway logins and user profiles. If you do not set a TT SIM credit limit, then non-TT SIM credit limits are used.
- If your existing product limits are configured with wildcards (*), you must configure a new product limit that has a specific product type and product. Users trading in TT SIM mode will not be able to see instruments with product limits that are configured with wildcards.
- If you want the product limits to be different for TT SIM mode trading, you can create a new product limit and specify that it only applies to TT SIM trading. If you do not create a TT SIM Only product limit, TT User Setup will use the existing product limit settings for the instrument.
