I am writing to ask if you would consider allowing for straight market buy and sell orders to be placed using the mouse by clicking above/below current price in buy/sell column as opposed to just using the trade menu. Right now i am using market if touched - client; which is the only option available in the Global settings trade menu. I guess you could use buy stop and sell stop type orders but they wont get you in the market right away if you are trading using a point and click method and you are not close to the price you want enter in on the DOM. I think this would be helpful for entry and exit in the faster/more volatile markets. Thank you for your consideration Thank you Steven |

We have set this as a Feature Request. But, we also want to let you know that you can setup Keyboard Shortcuts for "Buy Market" and "Sell Market". Refer to the following: Global Settings Menu: Customize Keyboard Shortcuts (Global Settings menu) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

If we were to perform a change due to a specific Feature Request in this forum, then we would post in this thread that we made the change. Otherwise, the only other way to see if a particular change is in the software or not is to look at the Version Notes at the following link: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/Whats_New.php Just keep in mind that we can not say when we will get to any particular feature.
