Question by dotrading9 · Feb 10, 2018 at 09:17 AM · TT® Platform

Assign keyboard shortcuts "hotkeys"

I looked in the help but did not find it.

Would it be possible to assign keyboard shortcuts "hotkeys" for drawing tools?For example a hotkey to directly select the vertical drawing tool or rectangle or fibo ...
Without having to go through the menu that is not practical.

Finally to be able to all kinds of hotkeys to assign them to the keyboard keys or a programmable mouse.

Please consider this request if it is not included in TT.

Cordially

Dear TT-Team,

I would like to add the following to dotrading9's request concerning hotkeys:

In X-Trader it was possible to create a hotkey for "market sell", "market buy" and for "liquidate". This was a very fast and convenient way to manage my orders (market orders and liquidate with left hand on keyboard and limit orders with right hand in price ladder with mouse). In TT there are many hotkeys to choose from, but there is no possibility to create the above mentioned hotkeys. I would really like to start trading with TT, so my question: are there plans to include these hotkeys at some point in the future?

Kind regards!

Yes, you have to set up the hotkeys on, MD Trader, TT, not to mention the hotkeys for drawning tools, charts ...the ability to create any custom hotkeys.

Thank you.

The difficulty with this is that X-Trader is a locally installed desktop app where as TT is browser based which introduces all kinds of potential problems.This is because location of the configuration file that X-Trader uses is on your hard drive while in TT these shortcuts would not persist across other computers or platforms.However this would be doable in TT Desktop.

Thank you Daniel for your comment. Now I understand why there are no hotkeys for "market buy/sell" and "liquidate" in TT web. You described it as a matter of location (web vs. local computer). As I would use TT Desktop anyway instead of TT web, I would appreciate it very much if TT programmers could include those hotkeys in TT Desktop.
