General hot keys

These are the keys that can be used both in the DOM window and in the chart window. The keys for switching instruments and periods can also be used in several other windows.

The “Open symbol selection menu” option is also included in the symbol switch. Set up a hot key for it and click it on the active chart—you will see the symbol entry field. In addition to the Charts window, the configured key will open the symbol selection menu in the following windows: DOM, Quotes, Trade feed, All prices, and Volume search. The key value is not configured by default.
