General hot keys

These are the keys that can be used both in the DOM window and in the chart window. The keys for switching instruments and periods can also be used in several other windows.

Switch instrument

A group of keys that allows you to quickly switch instruments in the active window. Hot keys can be configured for up to five instruments. To bind keys to a tool, go from the main menu to Settings → Symbols Manager → Favorite and open the instrument settings by clicking on the gear icon.

The “Open symbol selection menu” option is also included in the symbol switch. Set up a hot key for it and click it on the active chart—you will see the symbol entry field. In addition to the Charts window, the configured key will open the symbol selection menu in the following windows: DOM, Quotes, Trade feed, All prices, and Volume search. The key value is not configured by default. 

Switching periods

A group of keys that allows you to quickly switch periods in the active window. Hot keys can be configured for up to nine periods. To bind keys to a period in the period selection window, press the Edit button. In the window that opens, add a new period or select an existing one, and in the settings of the period in the Switch field, select the desired one configured in the hot keys.

Order volume

A group of keys that allows you to quickly switch the order volume, as well as increase and decrease the specified volume in the active window. These hot keys can be used in the chart and DOM windows.
