Trading Capabilities and Risk Management

Opening and Managing Orders

The process of opening a market order

  • Double-click on an instrument in the Market Watch
  • Specify the volume in lots
  • Select the execution type (market or instant)
  • Set Stop Loss and Take Profit levels (optional)
  • Click the Sell or Buy button
For pending orders, the process is similar, but you need to specify the pending order type and activation price. Closing and modifying open positions are done through the Trade tab, where you can change Stop Loss and Take Profit parameters for already open orders.

One-Click Trading Function

Web Terminal supports the One-Click Trading function, which significantly speeds up the process of opening positions
  • In MT4:
    Activated through the Options → One-Click Trading menu
    Try MT4
  • In MT5:
    Through the main menu → One Click Trading
    Try MT5
After activation, you need to accept the terms of use. The one-click trading window changes color depending on price movement – blue when rising, red when falling.

Risk Management Tools

Risk management is a critical aspect of successful trading. Web Terminal provides several key tools:
  • Stop Loss (SL)
    Automatically closes a position when a specified loss level is reached
  • Take Profit (TP)
    Locks in profit when a target level is reached
  • Trailing Stop
    Follows the price, automatically adjusting the Stop Loss level
  • Position Size Limitation

Proper use of these tools helps protect capital from excessive losses and preserve profits during periods of volatility.
