Disable trading on one DOM

Hi SC Support,

Is there a way to disable trading on only one Trade DOM window?

For example I have ES and NQ next to each other, but only trade the ES. I’d like to prevent accidentally submitting orders on the NQ DOM.

I’ve tried removing the buy/sell order columns, but apparently you cannot.
I’ve also looked at “Ignore Input” under the chart DOM settings, but they are global not chart-specific.

Thanks,
Felix

You just need to enable Order Confirmations through the M/Menu button on the attached Trade Window.

Is this still the only way to kind off lock certain DOMs? I tried Confirm New Orders in the M menu from Trade Window, but I can still place limit orders on DOM without any confirmation. I only want one DOM unlocked for trading, and 3 or 4 up for reference but locked to trading.

This would mean you are enabling the Confirmations on the wrong Trade Window. Refer to:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Trade Window Settings Not Applying to Chart or Trading DOM

Or just use a standard chart and enable this option to see the market data columns:
Trade Menu: Show Market Data Columns (Trade menu)

You would not be able to trade from a standard chart that is not in chart trade mode.

What I did. I customized DOM, detached it's window, created DOM's Control Bar (Customize Control Bar-find "Trading Locked"), so as to have own button "Trading Locked". By pushing this button I activate/deactivate trading through this DOM

A possibility is:

Open the trade windows for the chart.
Put an OCO order in with target and stop.
Set the quantities for the OCO orders = 0
Close the trade windows for the chart.

If you now click in the buy/ask column, this produces an error message:

Trade Order Error - There is only one Attached Order and it is set to 'All OCO Groups'. Set it to another OCO Group to continue with order entry. | 2022-01-18 19:08:16.819 *


However, no orders or trades are placed in the dom/market.
