Hot Key Question

[BrandonB 4]

Hello,,

Just curious when using hotkeys/buttons do users typically set a stop & exit position, or is it best to partial out manually?

 

Thank you.

Hi Brandon, it depends on personal preference and time of the day / strategy. In the market open (scalping / momentum trading) you want to be quick so hotkeys could be best.

@abiel I really like the open for ORB's / Scalps, I would assume this would be best suited for hotkeys/buttons? Would it still make sense when trading multiple stocks?  Is there any other time intra-day that a set stop & exit position setting would work besides the open?

 

Thank You

Yes Brandon, at the end is trader preference and style, for example Andrew just uses hotkeys and Thor just hot buttons.
