Setting One-click trading defaults (Webtrader)
If One-click trading is enabled, you can place an order with a single click (or tap) on a:
- Bid or Ask price in a watchlist or
- Buy or Sell button on a chart.
The order is executed with preconfigured defaults for lot size, stop loss pips and take profit pips. If you don’t explicitly preconfigure a default, Webtrader uses a system default.
Tip: One-click trading defaults are specific to each instrument (i.e. setting a default for one instrument does not change the settings for any other instrument).
Note: In this procedure, the word ‘click’ refers to either a click or a tap.
