hot key for Buy

[mmtrader]

Support,

In NT-7 hot key manager, is there a way I can set hot key for the Basic Entry "Buy" button? Like after I enter the limit value and without clicking the Buy button, can I assign a hot key to it?

Thanks

Thanks Kyle for the link and confirming it is possible.

I went through this,but am unable to find where I can enable hotkey for Basic Entry "Buy" button( File-->New-->Basic Entry-->Buy)? Like after I enter the limit value and without clicking the Buy button, how can I assign a hot key to it? I found hotkey for Buy-Market and others etc,..but not for just "Buy". Like say I enter to buy at 1100 ES in the Basic entry,but do not hit Buy by mouse click, but want to use a hotkey for the Buy button.

I also tried the custom order thing,but was unable to do it. Can you please tell me, if anyway I could enable hot key for this.

Thanks

Hi mmtrader,

Sorry for the confusion - only those properties listed within the order entry section of the Hot Key Manager are available currently.

I will, however, forward this enhancement request on to my development team for further consideration.

Thanks for clarifying Kyle. Yes, would be nice to see a way to enable hot key for this simple Buy button in "Basic Entry". Would be helpful to set the limit values and then use hot key for Buy button, instead of mouse click.

Hi Kyle,

Is there any update on enabling the hotkey feature requested below. Would be nice to see it in a upcoming beta release.
