Quick Trading Tools on the Exchange: The Complete Guide

Modern exchange trading requires speed and efficiency. The platform provides a set of specialized tools that allow market participants to place orders directly from the chart, significantly speeding up the decision-making process. Fast trading on the exchange becomes more accessible thanks to an intuitive interface and several methods for quick entry and exit from positions.

Three Ways to Quickly Enter a Position

The foundation of quick trading consists of two types of orders for opening positions:

Quick Market Entry Order is located on the right side of the trading chart. After specifying the contract size in advance, the investor can open a buy or sell with one click at the best available price. It is important to remember that the actual execution price may differ slightly from the price shown in the quick entry zone, as the market order is executed instantly at the current quote.

Quick Limit Entry Order is placed directly on the price scale of the chart. When hovering the cursor, a “+” button appears, allowing you to set the contract size and order direction. The system automatically checks the direction: if the entered price is above the last trade, the order will be a sell; if below, a buy.

Key Difference: When using quick entry, pressing the “Buy” or “Sell” button adds a position only in the specified direction, without closing opposite positions. To close a position, use the special functions described below.

Quick Position Closure

The quick closure function allows you to instantly place a market order to exit the current position. On the left side of the trading chart, where the open position is displayed, there is an “X” button. One click on it will immediately close the position at the market price without needing to navigate to other platform sections. This feature is especially useful in rapidly changing market conditions when every second counts. Note that in the mobile app, this function is under development.

Quick Reversal: Changing Direction with One Click

The quick reversal function eliminates the need to close the current position before opening a new one in the opposite direction. The system instantly changes the position’s direction while maintaining its size, greatly speeding up the reversal process.

How it works in practice:

Suppose a trader has an open long position of 0.1 BTC. Clicking the quick reversal button automatically places a market order to sell 0.2 BTC. Result: the current long position of 0.1 BTC is closed, and a new short position of 0.1 BTC is opened simultaneously. The final result is a position reversal with minimal movement.

In a more complex scenario, if both a long position of 0.2 BTC and a short position of 0.1 BTC are open simultaneously, pressing the reversal button for the long position places an order to sell 0.4 BTC. This action sequentially closes the 0.2 BTC long position and opens an additional 0.2 BTC short position, resulting in a total short position of 0.3 BTC.

Quick reversal now works everywhere:

On PC, the feature is activated by the ↑↓ button on the position display or the “Reverse” button in the position window. In the mobile app, go to the derivatives positions tab and press ↑↓ on the desired position.

Important Restrictions and Settings

All quick trading tools on the exchange are subject to the maximum size of a single order set for each trading pair. When attempting to place a larger volume, the system will automatically adjust the size to the allowable limit. For the reversal function, there is an exception: if the current position exceeds the maximum, the system will only close the position without opening a new one in the opposite direction. You can check the specific limits for a pair in the platform’s trading parameters section.

By default, an order confirmation window is enabled — a safeguard against accidental position opening. Investors can disable this protection in the preferences settings, both on the web version and in the app, if they are fully confident in their actions.

Fast trading on the exchange is becoming increasingly accessible thanks to these tools, allowing active participants to maximize the efficiency of their strategies in highly volatile conditions.
