Placing Orders on the Chart using HotKey

[Mavrik00]

This is something I think people would really love, but nobody has thought of it yet it appears...

when you place an order on the chart via the chart trader you must first click on the chart, select your order, the # of contracts, and then submit the order.

If you are trading in a dead market this might work, but not for anyone trading a fast moving chart....you just cant keep up.

Solution...

a Hot Key that will execute an order for you, and all you have to do is use your Cross-Hair (mouse) to move to the correct PRICE level you want to enter that order for.

IN other words, you would pre-determine this Hot Key for the following:

# contracts
order type
ATM strategy used
Stop Strategy used

With that all done beforehand, now all you need to do is use your cross hair to locate the exact price point on the chart, hit your hot key as specified and then it would place that specific order on the chart trader, and on your DOM of course, at that specific price level.

This would really help me personally, and hopefully others agree.
