TradeDOM - easier way to delete and move orders?

In the fast markets we currently have, it becomes clear that a tiny 'X' button on an order line is not sufficient to cancel working orders, and the order line itself is not high enough to quickly select and move.

I can't recall if there is an alternate way in SC to cancel orders? Or, to make the area larger so that the mouse doesn't have to be so precise?

For example, see in MD Trader (X Trader) how a single right click anywhere in a large box cancels an order, and a right click and drag moves the order.

You can also cancel orders through the Trade >> Trade Orders and Positions >> Orders tab.

And you can increase the size of the of the chart/trading DOM text through the Graphics Settings.

Josh,

You can also customize the keyboard shortcuts for all trading actions and also use control bar buttons for the same.

Another option is to buy a programmable [mini-]keyboard (cheap on Amazon and ebay) and change the keycaps to whatever you want to mirror the shortcuts. You can either do that with stickers or some keyboards let you swap out the keys or have printable inserts that go under the keycaps.

The world is your oyster
