You need to add the items you want to the right-click menu for trading. Select "Global Settings >> Customize Chart Trade Menu" to do this. Add the items you want to show in the right-click option. You can also setup specific order types based on clicking on the Buy/Sell columns. Refer to the following: Global Trade Settings Windows: Order Types (Global Settings >> Chart DOM Settings) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2023-12-01 16:57:22

Ok, I have seen that but which option is to set a limit order at a different price level, not the current price this being through clicking on a chart? i.e. right click and select as a example

We can not say exactly, as it depends on what you are trying to do. All of the different order types are explained at the following link: Order Types Wherever your mouse it relative to price at the time you right click is where the order is going to be placed.

I am unable to send a screenshot but when I type in the limit price order in trade window, I can do this at any price level. But if right click and select buy limit - it will automatically go to the current price level, no mater where I click?

It sounds like you are trying to set the Buy Limit at a price above the current Market Price. In this case, the order will fill immediately, as the current market price is a better price than the one that you are specifying. You need to enter a Buy Limit at a price that is lower than the current market price.
