Average Price

The Member that has intention to allocate trades at an Average Price, will be able to perform this action during any session, from any position account, selecting the trades to be converted, for the same contract, same side (long or short), and same register and execution date that must also match the original trade register date.

This procedure is available for IBEX 35, Mini IBEX 35 and Micro IBEX 35 future contracts.

Once performed Average Price trade, trade type J, original trades will be closed by using opposite value 0 type trades. In case of error, BME Clearing will allow its correction during the session when the Average Price trade has been created, previously requesting Member’s explanation. BME Clearing Operations Department will be entering an X trade type, in order to cancel the incorrect J trade, and will be getting back the original ones, by using an N trade type, so that the Member can request again the Average Price trade properly.
