Expand description
An instrument’s order rules (tick, lot step, minimums and maximums) and the check of an order against them before it is sent.
A venue publishes, per instrument, the grid a price and a quantity must sit on and the range
each must fall in. A client that loads those rules refuses an order that breaks them without
sending it, so the caller gets a typed error that says which value and which limit
(OrderError::InvalidPrecision for the grid, OrderError::OutOfBounds for the range)
rather than a venue’s text after a round trip. It never rounds: rounding would place a
different order from the one asked for. A caller that sizes or prices an order puts it on the
grid first, with ValueRule::round_down / ValueRule::round_up, or
OrderRules::round_quantity_down / OrderRules::round_quantity_up for a quantity.
A pass is not a guarantee. The check covers the rules a client has loaded, from the last time it loaded them, and only the ones that can be read off the request. The venue has the last say.
