Introducing right-click trading: Place limit and stop orders directly from price charts

Why chart-based order placement matters

The ease and accuracy that comes with setting limit and stop loss orders directly on a chart can help you avoid mistakes that sometimes occur with manual order form entry, such as inadvertently selecting the wrong order type or buy/sell direction. By interacting directly with the chart, you can ensure your orders correctly reflect your analysis and intentions.

Intuitive entries and exits

Right-click trading enhances your ability to plan trades by visualizing entry and exit points directly on the chart. With a straightforward right-click action, you can set a limit sell or stop loss buy above the current price or a limit buy or stop loss sell below it, aligning your trade setup with your market analysis in real-time.

Example scenario: MOON/USD

  If a trader believes that the MOON/USD pair is on the verge of breaking out to new all-time highs, they might choose to leverage this momentum. This can be done by placing a strategic limit buy order at the support levels and a stop-buy order slightly above the breakout price, aiming to capitalize from the anticipated uptrend. 

For a practical demonstration on how to set up both types of orders from the chart using our new right-click functionality, refer to the example in the video below:
