French term or phrase: ordres « en face à face »

This is a text about price manipulation as viewed by the AMF and the decisions of its Commission des sanctions.

La jurisprudence de la Commission des sanctions en matière de manipulation de cours donne des exemples classiques de pratiques et manœuvres incriminées, qui tendent essentiellement à donner une image fictive du marché, tels que :
• l’entrée dans le carnet d’ordres de nombreux ordres à des cours ne permettant pas leur exécution immédiate, puis annulés aussitôt après avoir produit leur effet baissier ou haussier, ce qui a permis à l’auteur de ceux-ci d’acheter parallèlement des titres sur la tendance baissière et d’en vendre sur la tendance haussière, tendances qu’il avait directement provoquées ;
• les *** ordres « en face à face » *** consistant à passer un ordre d’achat ou de vente, rapidement suivi du passage, à partir d’un autre compte, d’un ordre en sens contraire et portant sur un volume similaire, donnant ainsi au marché des indications fausse ou trompeuses quant au volume de l’offre et de la demande.

orders back-toback

Explanation:
Got a funny feeling this is viewed as back-to-back in English, in order to avoid confusion with face-to-face, implying that the parties actually see one another.
