The C in front of the price is the last price at which an agreement was reached between buyer and seller. It indicates that either:
1. no trading has taken place on this day or
2. the exchange is currently still closed.

This usually happens because the exchange is still closed. Pay attention to the currency in which you are trading the product and whether its exchange is already open.
However, you may also want to trade via a marketplace such as Frankfurt or Stuttgart, where the issuers are trading with you and are not willing to trade at your price.

The SMART exchange selection is a routing system that searches for the best price from all available exchanges.
