Manually entering the details for a new order is a bit of a hassle, especially when you just want to get that order placed NOW! NOW! NOW!

At the bare minimum, you have the entry price, the stop loss price, the number of units, and the currency.

Doing it through TS, you also need to enter the trading system and account to use.

It's a bit much. But, there is a way around it. You can use the Copy function provided by TS, which will open up the Orders Update window with all the same settings as the order being copied.

Click the Save And Close, or Send Order To Broker button, and you're done.

You'd probably want to change a couple of the settings before you send this new order off to the broker, but this shortcut gets you out of having to fill absolutely everything in absolutely every time you place an order manually through TS.
