Executors on the ticket ​

The order type dropdown on the ticket has more than Market and Limit: it also lists every executor you've built or forked that targets the current venue.

What an executor looks like on the ticket ​

When you select an executor in the dropdown, the ticket morphs. Instead of just "side, price, size" you see the executor's own form: whatever knobs the recipe needs (TWAP duration, ladder rungs, iceberg child size, TP/SL pair, etc.). Fill them in, click submit, and the executor runs.

A modal opens showing the executor's progress in real time: each child order, fills as they happen, a running tally of slippage and fees. When it's done, you see a summary of how many children fired, total filled, average price, and total cost. The process exits.

Where executors come from ​

Three ways an executor ends up in your dropdown:

  • You built it. Open a chat, ask for "an executor that ladders into a long over N minutes." Once it's saved, it appears in the dropdown for the venues it supports.
  • You forked one from Discover. Browse Discover → Executors, find a recipe you like, click Fork. It now lives in your workspace and shows up in the dropdown.
  • Built-in ones. A handful of common shapes (ladder, iceberg, TWAP) come with fxyz out of the box.

Per-venue support ​

An executor declares which venues it supports. A "ladder into" recipe might work on every venue; a "use HL's bracket orders" recipe only on HL. The dropdown filters automatically, so you only see executors that support the venue you're on.

  • Bots vs Executors: the difference between the two, and why one belongs on the ticket and one doesn't.
  • Discover: find executors other people have published.

Funds stay on the exchange. fxyz can trade, never withdraw.
