Hot Keys & DrawTriangleUp

[safetrading]

I have two questions I would like some help with. I scalp the CL manually. I open my position with a 6 tick target. Then I watch volume and order flow and if it is moving strong in my direction, I will advance my target a few more ticks at a time.

Sometimes it is hard to click on the chart trader or the price on the DOM quick enough to move the target because the market is moving so fast and my target gets hit before I can move it. Is there a way to program a hot key to move my target 2 ticks at a time? Since the keys on my keyboard don't move like the target on the DOM / ChartTrader, this obviously would be much easier.

Also, When using the DrawTriangleUp, is there a way to assign the border to be transparent?

Thanks for your time.

Hello Safetrading,

You can setup Hot Keys to Increase Last Order Price, Decrease Last Order Price, and a few others using the Hot Key Manager (under Tools).

There is not a supported way to set the Triangle Up's border to transparent.

Let us know if we can be of further assistance.

clarification

I used the "increase Last Order Price" in the Order Entry window of the hot manager, but this does not move my active target. I have other hot keys in use, so it appears I know how to use them, what might I be doing wrong?

Hello safetrading,

"Increase Last Order Price" will only increases the price of the last submitted pending order by one tick. It will not effect ATM Strategies Profit Target or Stop loss order as well.
