How is the limit price set for 1-Tap orders?

You choose the reference in Order Defaults:

  • Best Bid/Offer: buy at the best ask, sell at the best bid. Highest chance of a fill.

  • LTP: limit at the last traded price.

  • Midpoint: halfway between bid and ask. Saves on the spread, but may take longer to fill.
