# Settings
# Workspace
One of the main features of Tiger.com Windows is the ability to completely customize its workspace and place it on multiple monitors.
After starting the platform, you'll see a preset workspace with a Chart and Order book with prices. Start configuring your terminal by setting up your workspace. The first thing you can do is placing the platform [windows](/english/windows) in a convenient for your order.
Default workspace setting in the Tiger.com terminal
## **How the Workspace is set up**
### **Docking windows**
The Tiger.com terminal is built on the principle of docking windows, which allows you to:
* use screen space efficiently
* create and modify workspaces quickly and conveniently
* take into account the features of the application on computers with multiple monitors.
When you open new windows, they appear as tabs in the main window. In order to see several windows on one screen at the same time, dock them using a positioning cross.
To do so, drag the window, holding it with the left mouse button by the title, into one of the highlighted areas (right, top, bottom, or left) in the window under the cross. The center of the cross embeds the window as a tab.
Moving windows on Tiger.com Windows workspace
{% hint style="info" %}
Any tabs in windows, as well as new windows and tabs, can be placed in any of these areas and merged with any windows. An example of the arrangement of windows on the screen:
{% endhint %}
One of the options of window arrangement in Tiger.com Windows terminal
Tabs can be renamed and copied with all settings by right-clicking on the tab name. In order to do so, you can right-click on the mouse and choose the required action.
Action menu for a tab
### Global tabs
The interface has global tabs. They are located at the very bottom of the terminal window. You can place many windows on different tabs and switch between them.
To add a new global tab, click the “**+**” next to the **Main** button. These tabs can be swapped, renamed, and also hidden via **Windows → Tab panel**. The active tab will be highlighted in color.
Global tabs in the Tiger.com terminal
### Separate workspaces
You can create separate workspaces in order to work with multiple monitors in Tiger.com. To do this, through the main menu (**File → New window**), create a window with a simplified menu and set up a new workspace.
To open a new window, go to the main menu, press **Open** and select one of the suggested options.
| Window | Description |
| ----------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [Chart](/english/windows/chart) | The chart window contains an area with the instrument chart where you can enable the trader module and the DOM if necessary, which allows you to perform trades directly from the window. |
| [DOM](/english/windows/dom) | A window with all the information required for trading: a dynamic DOM, a chart of trades, clusters, an information block, and a trader module. |
| [Watchlist](/english/windows/watchlist) | Window displaying information available during trading on instruments that have been added to the table. |
| [Smart Tape](/english/windows/smarttape) | A window displaying all trades made on the market for the selected instrument. |
| [Statistics](/english/windows/statistics) | A window displaying all trades executed through the Tiger.com terminal. |
| [Volume Search](/english/windows/volume-search) | This window provides information on clusters in a tabular form. The table contains information on both the total volume value for the entire bar and the cell with the maximum volume. Volume search is an indispensable instrument for adjusting filters. |
| [All prices](/english/windows/all-prices) | A window with the ability to filter information of values by Volume, Trades, Bid, Ask, Delta for a certain time interval. This information will be useful for identifying key levels. |
| [Options board](/english/windows/options-board) | A window with information on Call and Put options regarding the underlying asset and its expiration date. Through this window, you can open the DOM and the chart of the instrument. |
After workspace adjustment you can go forward to [trading mode selection](/english/settings/trading-modes) in the terminal to choose either real or demo trading account mode.
# Trading modes
There are several trading modes available in the terminal, which you can choose depending on whether you wish to trade on a real or demo account.
## Operating modes
The trading modes can be selected through the top menu of the terminal **File - Trading mode.** The following modes are available:
* Real
* Simulator
* Player
Selecting a trading mode in the Tiger.com terminal
{% hint style="info" %}
The trading mode affects which lists of accounts you'll be able to access in the Trading Panel of the [Chart](/english/windows/chart) and [DOM](/english/windows/dom) windows. In real mode, real accounts are available for active [connections](/english/settings/connections), in Simulator mode — 5 Simulator accounts, in Player mode — 5 Player accounts.
{% endhint %}
### Real
This mode is used for operating the terminal on real accounts with real money using live data. For this mode to function, it is necessary to [create a connection](/english/settings/connections) to a [crypto exchange](/english/settings/connections/crypto-exchanges) or a [terminal](/english/settings/connections/trading-terminals) to receive real-time data.
### Simulator
In the Simulator mode, the so-called internal (demo) accounts of the Tiger.com terminal are used, meaning that the transactions are not made on a real account. At the same time, in order to receive live data, you must also set up connections to a crypto exchange or terminal, depending on the instrument you are going to trade on.
{% hint style="info" %}
To [set up a connection](/english/settings/connections) in Real and Simulator modes, [6 cryptocurrency exchanges](/english/settings/connections/crypto-exchanges) and [7 terminals](/english/settings/connections/trading-terminals) are available, which allow to trade on stock exchanges, as well as connect to [DataFeed](/english/settings/connections/trading-terminals/datafeed) to receive real-time data on FOREX market instruments.
{% endhint %}
The simulator account is unlimited, and leveraged trading is not available in simulator mode. To create a more realistic trading experience, it is recommended to configure the commission for instruments.

[Why do I need to set commission in the terminal?](/english/frequently-asked-questions/why-do-i-need-to-set-commission-in-the-terminal)
{% endcontent-ref %}
### Player
This mode is available in the [Player and Full licenses](/english/how-to-start/licenses-and-login) and allows users to play historical data for any instrument available in the Tiger.com terminal at the desired speed and the ability to pause playback, rewind and continue playback. In the Player mode, all [terminal windows](/english/windows) work similarly to the Real and Simulator modes, the difference is that the historical data is displayed instead of real time. Therefore, users don't need to set up connections when using the Player mode. More information about the Player mode can be found at the [link](/english/tables/player).
# Connections
To work in Real and Simulator modes, you need to set up one of the connections to receive real-time exchange data.
To start displaying quotes, charts and order books in real time, as well as to make trading operations, you need to set up a connection.
{% hint style="info" %}
Tiger.com Windows offers connections to [cryptocurrency exchanges](/english/settings/connections/crypto-exchanges) through a direct connection using their API. User can also connect to the NYSE, NASDAQ, CME, ICE, CBOT, COMEX, NYMEX, MOEX, SPBEX and EUREX stock exchanges, and Forex using [third-party trading terminals](/english/settings/connections/trading-terminals).
{% endhint %}
Connection settings menu
To configure the connection, go to the top menu and go to **File → Connections → Configure**. Select a cryptocurrency exchange or terminal and set up the appropriate connection. Detailed instructions for setting up connections are available at the links in the table below.

# Basic setup
# Selecting a symbol
Tiger.com Windows allows selecting a symbol in multiple ways.
The desired symbol can be selected from the drop-down list, which can be opened with:
* Menu of one of the [terminal windows](/english/windows) by clicking the **Select instrument** button 
* [Hotkey](/english/settings/terminal/hotkeys-manager) to open the symbol selection element.
Opening the symbol selection menu in terminal windows
### **How does symbol search work**
* In the case of stock exchanges, the ticker of each futures contract in Tiger.com Windows consists of three parts:\
\- contract name\
\- expiration month\
\- expiration year
To find a contract with the desired expiration date, you can refer to the table below:
\[table screenshot]
Let's take the ticker RiZ23 as an example: in this case, Ri is the name of the futures contract, Z is the expiration month (Z - December), 23 is the expiration year (2023).
* Instead of the full name of the futures contract, you can use the base name (for example, Ri instead of RiZ23). When choosing the base name of the futures, the terminal will display a general contract consisting of several separate contracts (the so-called "glue"), at the end of which the current contract is automatically added as the previous one expires. Also, note that trading will be available only when selecting individual contracts.
* After entering the name, you can navigate through the list of matches either with the mouse or with the Up / Down arrows on the keyboard. The key combination Shift + Up / Down allows you to quickly move through the list.

# Cluster presets
Cluster presets are chart display modes.
A preset determines the type of cluster on the chart. The Tiger.com terminal has approximately 30 presets representing clusters, which are based on Volume, Delta, Bid x Ask, Open, and Trades data.
The list of cluster presets can be accessed in one of two ways:
* Through the top main toolbar by clicking on the icon 
* Through the **Cluster** tab in the chart parameters.
### Preset
| Name | Description |
| ---------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Volume | The cells of the clusters show the traded volume for the given period at each specific price. |
| Volume Profile | The cells with the largest traded volume will have the largest horizontal length and will have the brightest color, making them the most noticeable relative to other cells. The maximum volume will be additionally highlighted with a frame, which is most noticeable in the contracted version. |
| Volume Histogram | The same preset as the Volume Profile, only without the gradient in the cells. All cells have the same color and differ only in size. |
| Delta Colored Volume | In the clusters, numbers indicate the volumes of traded contracts, while the background of the cluster cell is colored by delta. It is thus clear that with green shades there are more purchases than sales, and with red shades there are more sales than purchases. |
| Delta Colored Volume Profile | The same Volume Profile, only the cluster cells are colored by delta. |
| Volume Trade | This preset is a combined cluster and consists of two columns. The first one shows the traded volume, and the second one shows the number of executed trades at a given price. Adjacent values in both columns to the left. |

The more the volume has passed, the brighter the cells are, highlighting the maximum in the frame. |
| Bid × Ask Histogram | This preset is a combined cluster and consists of two columns: on the left is the total number of market sales (or limit purchases), and on the right is the total number of market purchases (or limit sales); it colors the cells without a gradient. |
| Bid × Ask Volume Profile | This preset is a combined cluster and consists of two columns: on the left is the total number of market sales (or limit purchases), and on the right is the total number of market purchases (or limit sales). The Volume Profile is built against the background of the clusters and colors the cells; the brighter it is, the more volume has passed, highlighting the maximum in the frame. |
| Bid × Ask Delta Profile | This preset is a combined cluster and consists of two columns: on the left is the total number of market sales (or limit purchases), and on the right is the total number of market purchases (or limit sales). The volume is displayed as a histogram and is colored by the delta color. |
| Bid × Ask Imbalance | This preset is a combined cluster and consists of two columns: on the left is the total number of market sales (or limit purchases), and on the right is the total number of market purchases (or limit sales).

| Open Interest Histogram | The preset represents a cluster in the form of open interest change values for futures with a background in the form of a histogram without a gradient. |
# Graphical objects in Chart window
You can apply various graphic elements to the chart, which are located on the Drawing Panel.
All graphical objects maintain the styles and parameters that were previously set for them. For example, if you draw a red dashed line with a thickness of 3, then the next time you choose to draw a line, it will be drawn with precisely the same settings.
{% hint style="info" %}
The Tiger.com terminal has an API that lets you program graphical objects. Examples of graphical objects are in the [related page](https://tiger-trade.gitbook.io/tiger.trade-windows-docs/v/english/~/changes/vwK8VizX4X32gFElQmEk/development-for-tiger.trade-windows-t/examples-of-graphical-objects).
{% endhint %}
The object manager can be opened by:
* Double-clicking on the object with the left mouse button
* Right-clicking in the chart area and selecting the line **Object manager**.
The left part of the window shows the areas of charts and a list of graphical objects in them, as well as a button to delete selected graphical objects from the list.
The right side of the window shows the properties of the selected graphical object that can be edited.\
To save the object settings as a template, click on the icon.
In the pop-up window, enter a name for the template and click the button **OK**. When adding a new object from the list of templates, you can now select the saved one, except for the **Default** template.

# Elders Force Index
Elder’s Force Index is an indicator that helps to assess who is currently dominating the market: buyers or sellers.
The developer of this indicator is Alexander Elder, a well-known trader and author of popular books on trading.
The following parameters are evaluated in the Force Index indicator calculation algorithm:
* Direction of price movement
* The amount of price change for a certain period
* Trade volume
The Elder Force Index provides an indication of which direction the market is moving. If the indicator line is in the area above 0 and shows the next maximum, this indicates an upward trend and the dominance of “bulls.” If the Elder’s Force Index falls below 0 and forms local minimums, the market is in a downward trend and “bears” set the tone.
The Force Index indicator is built in a separate window directly below the price chart and consists of one main line and the central level 0.
To improve results, Elder recommended averaging the Force Index values using the Exponential Moving Average (EMA). Therefore, the formula for calculating the indicator values appears as follows:
**FORCE INDEX = EMA ((Pn – P(n-1)) \* VOLUME)**
* **ЕМА** is Exponential Moving Average.
* **Pn** is closing price of the current candle.
* **P(n-1)** is closing price of the previous candle.
* **VOLUME** is volume of the current candle.

# Heatmap
The indicator shows data changes in the DOM.
It has minimum and maximum volumes, the basic ask and bid colors, and the colors of asks and bids that exceed the maximum volumes.
If the volume of the limit level in the DOM is between the minimum and maximum, the price level color is proportional to the volume. If the volume of the limit level exceeds the maximum, the price level will be the maximum volume color.
This indicator is best used for tick charts with a value of 1, where every bar (tick) stands for a separately aggregated trade.

#### Parameters
| **Name** | **Description** |
| ------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Depth of market | Changes the DOM |
| Expanded DOM | Extends levels from the current price to the price scale. |
| Color map | Visualization settings for volume in the indicator. |
| Lower cutoff % |
Corresponds to the upper cutoff.
|
| Lower cutoff V |
Minimum volume. Levels with order volumes lower than the minimum value will not be displayed.
|
|
Upper cutoff %
|
Let’s say the maximum volume permitted in the visible range is 1000. We can also say there’s a level with volume 800.
If the cutoff is 0, the color for that level is 80% of the maximum color in the gradient.
If the value is 20%, the maximum volume will be 1000 - 20% = 800. In that case, levels with volume 800 will be the maximum volume color.
|
| Upper cutoff V | The maximum volume. If the order volume exceeds the maximum, the price level will be the maximum volume color. |
| Contrast |
Controls the contrast between the levels on display.
|
| Large volumes | Sets the maximum value for every bar, with the last value in each bar taken the moment it is closed if this is not checked. |
| Brightness |
Filters levels from smallest to largest. The higher the brightness, the easier it is to see weak levels.

# Ichimoku
An indicator represented by a combination of five lines, three of which are moving averages and two of which are their derivatives.
Ichimoku not only determines the presence of a trend, but also provides information about the location of support and resistance zones, while also determining trend rollbacks. The Ichimoku indicator was developed in 1930 by the Japanese analyst Goichi Hosoda (pseudonym Ichimoku Sanjin); it was presented to the public only in 1960 as a tool for analyzing the behavior of the Nikkei index.
In the trading terminal, the Ichimoku indicator is represented by five lines on the price chart, two of which form the so-called “cloud” (a dotted range between the two lines).
The Ichimoku indicator gives the strongest signal if the price was in the “cloud” and left its border. In this case, the market is considered to have come out of the flat and has become a trend.
If the Tenkan and Kijun SenkouA lines are located in series and parallel to each other, then a stable trend is considered to have set in on the market.
Weaker signals will be those to complete trades when the Tenkan and Kijun lines cross (in the direction of the cross) and the price crosses the Chikou line.
### **Indicator settings**
#### Parameters
| **Name** | **Description** |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Tenkan | Shows the average price value, which is defined as the sum of maximums and minimums, divided by 2, over the time interval specified in the value (9 candles by default). Tenkan is the fastest of the Ichimoku indicator lines and shows the direction of the trend with its slope. A line is directed upwards means that the trend is ascending; downwards means it is descending. |
| Kijun | This is the average value between the maximum and the minimum for the selected period of time (a period of 26 candles by default). |
| SenkouA | Since it is their average value, the first line of the “cloud” and the derivative of Tenkan and Kijun shifted forward by the Kijun (26) period. Performs the support/resistance function of the current trend. |
| SenkouB | Shows the average value between the minimum and maximum for the selected time period, but the line is shifted forward by the amount specified in the Kijun value (the period is 52 candles by default, and the shift is 26 candles). |
| Chikou |
The line that is formed by the closing prices of the periods is shifted back by the amount of Kijun (26). If the line crosses the price from bottom to top, it is a signal to buy; if it crosses from top to bottom, it is a signal to sell.
|
|
Kumo
|
The filled sector between the SenkouA and SenkouB lines forms a cloud of the Ichimoku indicator.

# Margin Zones
The Margin Zones indicator is intended for showing margin zones, which are based on the initial margin for the symbol, on the chart.
These margin zones are a kind of price level. They display market participants’ commitment to losing positions. Thus, they help us to identify reversal patterns and to take into account non-obvious price changes.
**Margin Zone Level = (Initial Margin / Value of the Symbol’s Price Increment) \* Price Increment of the Symbol**
This formula calculates a full margin zone, from which other levels can then be calculated.
