Can you please explain how to enable keyboard shortcuts to enter trading orders for where ever the mouse is pointed ? This can be done by right clicking and selecting the order on the dialogue box but this is cumbersome when the market is moving quickly, keyboard shortcuts would simplify things and make it quicker and more efficient to enter orders.

Please help. Thank you

I was looking the same thing, is that possible or we need to send it first with some offset then arrange it tick by tick ?

The closest that is available to this, is this option:
Chart Settings: Extend Chart DOM Across Entire Chart When Using Ctrl(Buy) / Shift(Sell) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)
