Block Trades in T&S

[brirob14]

Hello NT Forum; hope you had a great holiday season!

I have been monitoring the T&S window and am interested when BLOCK trades come through. Is there something special about these trades to designate them as "BLOCK" or is the T&S window simply adding the text "BLOCK" to the time/price data based on my configuration of the "Block alert trade size" parameter for the T&S settings? Hope this makes sense.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Thanks.

Hello brirob14,

Thank you for your note.

If your right click in the Time and Sales window>Properties, you are able to define what single trade over a certain quantity will be shown as a "block trade" in the window. If you changed the value to 1, every trade will be shown as a block trade.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.
