Place Entry Stop Order in DOM

[damian8]

How do I do that? eg, place a buy stop above the market? All I can enter in the DOM above the market is a limit, which is obviously filled instantly, because I bid over the offer.

Hello,

Thank you for your post. Glad to assist. You may place a Buy stop limit by clicking the middle mouse or scroll wheel down when hovering in the Buy column.
See the below section of our help guide for more order type options via the SuperDOM.

Thanks. Better get me a mouse with a middle button.

(I typically trade with a touch screen)

can this default behavior be changed? i´d rather use a key when pressed with the mouse, like "shift click"

Maybe with Hot Keys it is possible?

Thank you for your reply.

This would be possible via Tools > Hot keys > Order entry. Scroll to the bottom under Custom > select "add" to setup a custom order.
See below for more on trading with hot keys.

Have had a look but not sure I can program what I want to program?
I want it so that I click along with a keyboard key, to submit stop market orders on the DOM. IE: CRTL CLICK acts as middle button...
Can I do that with HotKeys?

Thank you for your reply.

No, this is unable to be setup with hot keys at this time.

Please let me know if I may assist further.
