Hotkey order entry

chudx · 08-01-2007, 09:17 AM

I just started evaluating Ninja Trader and couldn't find any information on using hotkeys to enter orders. Maybe I'm overlooking this; but if not, are there plans to allow hotkey order entry in future versions?

Thanks.

Hotkeys is on our list of possible future enhancements. Thanks for taking the time to suggest this.

Every other Trading Platform in the Universe has Hotkeys ....
Why Not NinjaTrader ????

You guys spend so much time trying to trick out NT ,

But what about the simple requests like Keyboard Hotkeys.

Come On .... I've been requesting this for over a year

A hot key to disable a running strategy before an entry is executed would be BIG. Then hit the hot key again to resume. A little flag showing strategy is suspended or resumed too!
