To enter an order with the keyboard
The following button behavior is based on the default setting that buy is on the left side of the ladder and sell is on the right.
Market mode
To place a buy market order, press the 
(left
arrow) key.
To place a sell market order, press the 
(right arrow) key.
Place Order mode
To place a buy limit order, press the (left
arrow) key. Price must be less than or equal to market price.
To place a sell limit order, press the (right arrow) key. Price must be
greater than or equal to market price.
To place a buy stop order, press the (left
arrow) key. Price must be greater than market price.
To place a sell stop order, press the (right arrow) key. Price must be less
than market price.
To place a buy best offer order, press 
+
(ALT+left arrow) key.
To place a sell best offer order, press +
(ALT+right arrow) key.
CTRL toggles between the stop and stop limit order types. A DOM-Triggered Stop Limit becomes a DOM-Triggered Stop, a Trailing Stop becomes a Trailing Stop limit, etc. Here, the current order type is assumed to be stop:
To place a buy stop limit order, press 
+
(CTRL+left arrow) key. Price must be
greater than market price.
To place a sell stop limit order, press +
(CTRL+right arrow) key. Price must be
less than market price.
The price associated with the
order placed does not necessarily correspond to the best bid or ask position at
the time of action, as the market and DOM data may change before the exchange
receives the order.
