short cut for market order

I think being able to test strategies quickly is essential. For example, if I see a buying opportunity, being able to execute a buy order instantly by pressing the "B" key, or a sell order by pressing the "S" key, would be extremely convenient.

Market orders need to be executed the exact moment you decide to trade. That’s why having shortcuts—like mapping a market buy order to the "B" key and a market sell order to the "S" key—would allow trades to trigger instantly upon pressing the button. Similarly, assigning the "C" key to close existing positions would save a lot of time.

Manually selecting a market order from the new order menu every single time simply takes too long and is too cumbersome. Although you can bring your mouse to the buy/sell panel, I think trading with a keyboard allows for a more intuitive experience

    You can also use the Quick Order panel for instant trade execution.

    Additionally, pressing Shift + N will open the New Order window:

    Hi @RYUYA NAKATAMARI ,

    Thank you for your suggestion.

    We already have a shortcut for closing positions.

    As for the rest of the shortcuts, I’ve passed your idea on to our developers for consideration.
