Four order types. One source of price.

Limit and stop orders rest on the server, not in your browser, so they keep working if you close the tab or your laptop sleeps. You can hold up to 50 pending orders, and cancel them one at a time or all at once.

Sizing is in USD notional. Size presets set the order to 10, 25, 50 or 100% of buying power, or size it so that the stop risks 0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2% of the account. For a worked approach, see position sizing.

• Drag stop loss and take profit on the chart. Pull them from the position marker to a new price. With one-click off, confirm with Enter or discard with Esc.
• Close 50% to bank half and let the rest run, or close in full.
• Flatten all closes every open position in one action.
• Opposite side closes. Selling while long closes the long rather than opening a hedge. There is one net position per symbol.

The risk manager previews the price at which your account would hit its daily limit or maximum loss while you hover Buy or Sell, so you see the boundary before you commit.

Turn one-click trading on and the Buy and Sell buttons send immediately. Leave it off and every order is armed first, then confirmed, which is the safer default while you learn the layout.

Shift+B buys and Shift+S sells from the keyboard, following the same arm-then-confirm rule when one-click is off. The full list is on the keyboard shortcuts page.

Server-priced fills. Every fill, exit and mark uses the server's live quote, never a price sent by the browser. If the server's quote is stale, the order is rejected rather than filled at an old price. Bid and ask come from the live price with a fixed spread per instrument.

A worker that does not sleep. A server-side worker watches stops, targets, resting orders and account limits around the clock. Margin is checked on the server. Your protection does not depend on your connection staying up.

Pair resting orders with server-side price alerts and you can step away from the screen without leaving your plan behind.

Better you hear it here than find it mid-trade:

• No trailing stops. Move your stop by dragging it on the chart.
• No OCO orders, other than the stop loss and take profit pair on a position or bracket.
• No stop-limit orders. Stops trigger and fill at the server's quote.
• No hedging mode. One net position per symbol.
• No Expert Advisors, scripting, algorithmic trading or public trading API.
• No click-to-trade on the DOM or book. The order flow views are reading tools.

If automated strategies are central to your trading, MetaTrader 5 is the better fit, and our MT5 comparison says so.
