Create Trade File for Other Transaction Types

The Default Trade Actions on the Rebalancing System Settings page allow you to set the defaults for the Trade Actions dialog box on the Trade List page. The Create trade file for other transaction types setting controls the default setting for the Create trade file for other transaction types option on the Trade Actions dialog box.

When selected, Tamarac Trading will select Generate trade file for other transaction types by default on the Trade Actions dialog. You can still clear this check box before creating orders to send to the custodian. On Trade Actions, this option generates a trade file for any transaction that can't be traded at the custodian, e.g. dummy tickers.

Best Practice

Leave this option checked to ensure you generate a trade file for any securities that aren't ETFs, equities, or mutual funds.
