RFQ (Request for Quote) lets you request liquidity for your order size before trading. It is available on supported markets.

How it works

  1. Select RFQ from the order-type dropdown, choose Buy / Long or Sell / Short, and enter your size.
  2. Pacifica requests liquidity automatically. The request refreshes when you edit the order.
  3. When the form shows Ready to execute, review the estimate and submit your order.
  4. Your order executes as a market order, subject to your Max Slippage setting.
The displayed price is an estimate from the public order book, not a locked quote or a guaranteed fill price.

Settings

Good to know

  • Requesting liquidity does not place a trade. You still need to submit the order.
  • If liquidity is unavailable, the form cannot proceed until a fresh request is ready.
  • An order can fill partially. Any amount that cannot fill within your slippage limit is cancelled.
