Trading in the chart - wrong Order placing

Most of the time I do use the "Trade Chart mode" to enter Trades. In connection with that I use the Chart Trade Menu.

Most of the time I use Limit Orders and sometimes Stop Orders. In some cases it happens that I set a Limit Order instead of a Stop Orders and vice versa.

The order is filled immediately. Is there a way to avoid that. I'd like to work with 1click Orders only (without any confirmation).

Yes there is a way to avoid that.

Refer to:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Reject Chart Trade Orders That Will Immediately Fill (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> General >> Order Entry)

There is another way to do a truly one-click chart-trade entry, and always with the correct order type:
1) Use the ChartDOM
2) Uncheck all confirmations
3) Set the ChartDOM settings as in the pic.

Many thanks tomgilb but I do not like the ChartDom. I use the same settings for the DOM
