Market Trades

The Market Trades tool allows you to view all trades executed on the entire market for the current day.

You can filter the list to only show trades between a certain trade size, "% of daily volume/value" or "% of Market Cap"

The Markets Trades tool can be used to actively monitor the entire market for large trades, sometimes known as block trades. Block trades can potentially have a significant impact on the market.

Access

  • press Y
  • click the Trades button in the Market Tools section of the Toolbar
  • or select the Market Trades option in the Tools menu

Tips

To filter the list to only show trades over a particular size set the minimum Value, in the Trade Ranges settings, to say, 1m (abbreviation for $1,000,000). The list will then only show trades with a trade value greater than $1,000,000.

You can also filter to only show trades that are a certain percentage of a company's market cap. This can be useful to find large trades in small companies that might not be noticed if filtering based on a fixed minimum trade size. To do this, go to the "Trade % of Total" settings and set the "Mkt Cap" value to say, 0.5. This will show trades where the trade size is at least 0.5% of the company's total market cap.

Hover your mouse over the time to see the market depth at that point in time.

Click the time to change the tool to the market depth at that point.

Drag the time to another window to make that window display the depth at that point.

Hover over the side indicator to see an intraday chart that highlights the time of the trade in the row.
