Can you tell me if it is possible to create a set of buttons that can put done on the screen? Two keys that allow me to cancel all market orders and another that allows me to close all open operations with one click. Thanks very much

There is not a way to put buttons in the graphics area.

But you can add Control Bar Buttons to do what you want. Although we are not sure exactly what the difference is between "...cancel all market orders and ...close all open operations". But look through the options for the control bar buttons to see if what you want is there, in particular the "Flatten" options. Refer to the following:
Control Bar: Customize Control Bars >> Control Bar 1-12 (Global Settings)

It might be fine, I'll get used to it.... and thanks... One more courtesy, if I click on the button you indicated, both flatten and cancel, then the confirmation pop-ups appear, can you please tell me how to eliminate that pop-up? Thanks again

Select the Confirmations submenu. Refer to the images below.
Disable the Confirmations that you do not want by removing the check mark. OK I DO IT

despite having disabled everything, if I click on the button I created, flatten or cancel all, I have cancel confirmation popup.... Can you help me?

thanks

Exactly what selection in the Customize Control Bars is that "Cancel All" set to?

I NEED TWO BUTTONS, the first, cancel everything, is the selection "Cancel orders All symbols - All accounts, the second button, which you see on the left with the writing in ENGLISH, is the command Flatten all positions - All account. I need these two buttons. The problem occurs even if I use the keyboard shortcut keys, it's the same, the confirmation popup always opens.

We can verify that the confirmation does come up in those cases. We have passed this along to Engineering for them to review and see if they can make a change for this.

Ah well, then there's the popup. I hope you will let me know as soon as possible how to resolve it. The buttons I make, or even the quick keyboard shortcuts, which would suit me very well, are used for a very quick closing, if the popup opens I lose that speed. Thanks in the meantime and I hope you let me know.

There is not a way to disable confirmations which affect all symbols and/or all accounts.
