scalpers, what hotkeys do u use???

what keys do u have setup on the keyboard to hit bids quick, do auto execs, put out arcas/islands bid and offers and modify the limit price all as fast as possible.

i use F1 thru F4 for buys. and 2 thru 4 for sells. arrow keys to modify limit prices and enter to execute and 0 on the number pad to cancel orders and number pad to modify share size
 
F1 to F4 are to cancel orders
F5-F8 are sells for listed (stop, market, limit, nx)
F9-F12 are buys for listed
] \ INET sell buy
; ' ARCA sell buy
. / BRUT sell buy
ins pgup del pgdn are swipe and ecn blast keys
num pad is all sizes and size increment/decrement
arrow keys are price increment/decrement in pennies and nickels

A bunch more lesser used routes and order types with shift and ctrl keys

I'm using Hydratrade and you can really customize the hotkeys.

i use swipes and autoNX, but what does and how does ECN BLAST work?
 
all keys are with the shift key

q - scrolls through bid tier size on isld, arca, brut, SIZE, btrd

w - hits inside bid to close position

x - hits inside bid for tier size

---

p - scrolls through offer tier size on isld, arca, brut, SIZE, btrd

o - takes inside offer to close position

u - takes inside offer for tier size


number pad changes tier size

arrows change price

shift + enter places order 1 cent inside

f5 toggles hidden orders
