Feature request – adding custom HotKeys

Matt · 2025-10-06T02:57:40+00:00

Hi – I realise adding a NEW custom keyboard shortcut for trading is not available currently – we must work with the predefined options – but is this possible to request in the next minor release..? Specifically; I like that the Order Book can have buttons to “Reduce Position By %”, but would be so nice if this could be assigned to a Shortcut, just like Buy/Sell/Close/Invert/etc. There are workarounds for this obviously, but they’re cumbersome and a little risky for scalping. Thanks

Hello. If you go to Preferences and then Keyboard Shortcuts, you’ll see that certain actions can indeed be configured.

Yes, I’m well aware of this, and I use many of them already – however we cannot define our own actions and assign them to a HotKey.

Given the functionality is already in PRT (eg. Reduce Position By %), surely it would be simple to allow this to be given a shortcut 🤷‍♂️
