The Trade terminal combines market data, venue execution, and account activity in one workspace.

Terminal layout

  • The top bar selects the market and execution venue.
  • The chart and order book show the selected market.
  • The order ticket uses the selected execution venue.
  • The activity panel tracks positions, open orders, and history across your venue accounts.

Choose a market

Open the market selector to search by symbol or browse by product and asset category. Each listing shows the market type and available statistics, such as price, volume, open interest, or funding. You can save frequently used markets as favorites. Market availability changes over time, so use the directory rather than a fixed asset list.

Choose where to execute

The two selectors at the top serve different purposes:
  • Market chooses the chart, order book, and market statistics you are viewing.
  • Execute on chooses the venue that receives your order.
Selecting an execution venue does not transfer capital. The venue must already be funded and activated, and it must support the selected market. If setup is incomplete, the order ticket shows the required funding or activation step.

Prepare and submit an order

The ticket exposes the controls supported by the selected venue and market. These can include:
  • market and limit orders;
  • buy/long and sell/short;
  • sizing in quote or base units, including percentage sizing;
  • leverage and margin mode;
  • reduce-only and take-profit/stop-loss controls; and
  • slippage, post-only, time-in-force, or expiry settings.
Before submitting, check the venue name, available buying power, order value, required margin, estimated execution price, slippage or price impact, liquidation price, and fees. Mobius pauses submission when required venue data is unavailable rather than filling in an estimate.

Manage positions and orders

The activity panel has three tabs:
  • Positions shows the venue, side, leverage, size, value, PnL, accumulated funding where available, and liquidation price. Use Close to submit a reduce-only order.
  • Open orders shows working and partially filled orders. Resting orders can be canceled from the table.
  • History shows completed, canceled, and rejected orders.
Selecting a position’s market opens the matching market and venue in the terminal.

Understand order status

Mobius distinguishes submission from venue confirmation:
  • Pending means the action was submitted but is not yet confirmed in venue state.
  • Confirmed means the venue reports the order or fill.
  • Rejected means the venue refused the order.
  • Ambiguous means Mobius cannot yet determine whether the venue accepted the submission.
If an order is ambiguous, check all three activity tabs and wait for a venue update before sending the same order again. Submitting a duplicate may create unintended exposure. Use Portfolio for an account-level view across venues.
