Features for an Active Trader

[Donald Q.]

The beta is looking fantastic for the upcoming release. Wondering if you could add the following features to better accommodate the active trader?

Account View -> Transactions -> Filter -> "Not Open"
Account View -> Transactions -> View -> Auto scroll to bottom
Raw Data -> View -> Highlight when Last is greater or less than Bid/Ask
Level II -> Trading -> Trade Ticket at bottom of Level II window
Level II -> Trading -> Flip Buy/Sell Buttons (Buy button is on the Ask side, Sell button is on the Bid side, Cancel button is centered)

Thank you for the consideration!

Filter - Not Open - what would that be? anything not open? including filled, canceled, expired, rejected?

Auto scroll to bottom - ??? vs CTRL End? bottom doesn't really have a significance since you can just as easily have new stuff on top. in fact, wouldn't that be preferred?

Level II - flip buy/sell.. hmmm. will see.  As for cancel centered, there is a status indicator between there, that is why it is not centered.

Filter - Not Open | Correct, anything not open. In my layout, I have an Account View/Transaction window that shows only my open orders and one that shows everything else (Filling, Partial Fill, Filled, Canceled, Expired, Rejected, etc.)

Auto Scroll to Bottom | This will be used for the Account View/Transaction window that shows everything else. The default sorting puts new entries on the bottom, but the window doesn't scroll to show the last entry automatically. I need to be able to see what's going on without extra keying. With that said, if I show the Order Date column and sort by descending, I can see the latest activity at the top which while I prefer the bottom I can live with that. However, I don't want to show the Order Date column to avoid horizontal scrollbar and to save space on my layout. When I remove it, the sorting reverts to default, which is newest entries on bottom, but the window doesn't scroll to the bottom automatically.

Level II - Thanks for considering, indeed I do recall the "Success/Failed" status popping up there.

 

Can I assume these are in the next beta?

Raw Data -> View -> Highlight when Last is greater or less than Bid/Ask
Level II -> Trading -> Trade Ticket at bottom of Level II window

Oh in case you wonder where the option is (and for those reading this) it is in the Settings. We added a "Search" in settings that allows you to find the setting by just typing a few letters of it in the search.

That's a nice addition, I just noticed the search button & a big thumbs up for making the trace panel on the charts transparent 👍
