Hi,

Is it possible to create a trading shortcut key to toggle price for a limit or stop order. Instead of using limit/stop

+- 2, 3 or more. Being able to choose price up or down the dom. I have been able to do this with many equity platforms.

I understand how to set up the customize keyboard shortcuts. There is no option there to toggle price up or down.

I would like to be able to pick a specific price without using the Dom,just using hotkeys. This option is available on

most equity platfoms. Usually as a pop up box to toggle price. Is it possible to program this function.

Are you referring to being able to modify the price of an existing order , by using a keyboard shortcut?

Once in a position being able to place a limit and stop order to exit. So If I enter
CL at 63.60 long I can limit out above and place a stop below at my disired price using hot
keys instead of using the dom with a mouse.

The closest that is available is to use the Attached Order functionality:

Ok thanks for the feedback. Would creating a hot key with a price toggle box be a feature Sierra may consider adding?
