Custom Hot Keys in NT8?

[Dirty Scalper]

In NT7, there was a hot key manager where we could custom program hot key functions. I don't see it on NT8. Is it still possible to custom program hot keys? (Not just what NT8 offers under custom hot keys).

I want to program "sell stop market" 1 tick below previous bar's low (F5 key) and "buy stop market" 1 tick above previous bar's high (F8 key). In the custom order section of Hot Keys, it only allows us to choose either Ask or Bid and can't reference previous bar's OHLC.

TIA

Hello Dirty Scalper,

Unfortunately it is not supported to reference the previous price bar with custom order hot keys. You can only use the bid and ask price as you mention.

Thx Jason.

Is there a workaround? Maybe using a strategy instead? I'm not a programmer, so any input would be appreciated & I'll do the leg work if there's an alternate solution.

I'm not sure if this is possible when creating an automated strategy. I'm not a programmer myself either, so I won't be able to assist in this regard.
