Hotkeys & quick-stake presets
In fast markets, the seconds spent retyping a stake are seconds the price uses to move. Preset buttons switch your stake instantly; hotkeys (Pro) take your most-used actions off the mouse altogether.
Who can use it
Custom presets — create, name and reorder your own stake buttons — plus keyboard hotkeys for the actions the ladder's clicks perform, with a dismissible on-screen reference overlay so the bindings are never a memory test.
A fixed set of quick-stake preset buttons beside the Amount field — one tap to jump between sensible stakes.
Quick-stake presets
- In the Market View's One-Click Betting bar, tap a preset — the Amount field updates instantly and the next click bets at that stake.
- (Pro) Open the preset manager (the ⚙ button beside the presets) to add, rename, reorder or remove buttons. Name them the way you think — "min", "half", "full send" — they're yours.
- Presets are saved per user, so your set follows you between sessions.
Hotkeys
- Switch hotkeys on in Preferences → Market Window (Pro).
- With a market window focused, use the bound keys to fire the same actions as the ladder's clicks — place at the touched price, step your stake through the presets, cancel the last unmatched bet, and more.
- Press the ? button (or its hotkey) for the reference overlay — a dismissible cheat-sheet of every current binding, right over the window.
A hotkey is one-click betting at keyboard speed. The defaults deliberately avoid easy-to-hit combinations, but treat an armed market window like a live trading terminal — because it is one. Switch hotkeys off when you're done trading.
Build presets around your staking plan, not round numbers — if your unit is £7.50, make the button £7.50. Learn two hotkeys first (stake up, place) before adding more. Keep the overlay up for your first few sessions; it fades from needed to nice-to-have within a week.
