Visual Trading via NetTradeX Advisors

The NetTradeX Advisors terminal has expanded its capabilities by adding visual trading features. There is no necessity of calling the dialog windows for many of the trading operations as the corresponding steps are performed directly from the chart. Now it is much easier and faster to set and modify Limit and Stop orders and work with pending orders, close positions and delete unnecessary orders for the trader.

1The distance from the order level to the position level is indicated both in points and in Profit/Loss in the deposit currency (taking into account the position volume). The inscription is shown in large font and disappears when the order is set (modified).

2Placing orders involves complying with the minimum order distance. In order to know the current value of the minimum distance, select the desired symbol in the Market Watch window, click it with the right mouse button and choose Symbol Properties. The minimum order distance for the selected symbol is specified in the Minimum order distance field.

3The context menu content depends on the relative location of the desired order level and the current market price. If the desired order level is closer to the price than the minimum order distance, the context menu will not have the correspoding entries displayed.

4The order volume is determined by the amount that was specified in the order placing dialog last time. If this value is less than the minimum order volume for this symbol, then the minimum volume is used.

5Closing position in the visual mode has the same level of slippage as the one that was specified in the dialog Close position while closing the last position.
