Function key operation and Gamepad

[NWT27]

Hi,

Currently I use the IB platform and thinking of changing over to NT.
With IB I have setup a game pad http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/ga.../5123&cl=au,en as my main order operations centre (so to speek). I've stuck labels onto the keys for the different order types and other misc functions.

Basically, I can do all of the functions of the SuperDOM (but IB) from this game pad.

The advantages are that I'm less proan to error due to wrong mouse button clicks, slipping of the mouse pointer etc.
In IB you can programm all of the order types etc against function keys or other key operations, then in the game pad I can then program each of the keys to emulate the functins keys.

I'm not seeing this capability of using the keyboard for order palcement, closing of positions, re-centering of the display, cancelling of oders etc etc.
All of which I can do through IB and my game pad.

Can this be done with NT?

Neil.

Hello,

You are correct, you cannot do this in NT6.5, but you can do it in NT7 which is in beta testing. You can get a free beta trial download of NT7 if you send us an email at sales at Ninjatrader dot com
