Trade Settings
Order Verification	Check to enable order verification before placing or canceling an order. This will give you a chance to review the details of your order before you send it, as well as displaying any notifications or errors resulting from the order settings. You may also choose to add a Bracket to your order by clicking on the "Set Exit Strategy" button. Please note that there is a 10 minute time limit to place your order once the Order Verification window has been opened. If the Order Verification window has been open for longer than 10 minutes and you wish to place an order, close the window and place a new order. IMPORTANT: If you turn off Order Verification, your orders are immediately submitted without a verification screen, so you will not have the opportunity to review the terms of your order prior to entry and will not see warning or informational messages related to your orders. By unchecking this feature, you accept the associated risks of trading without an Order Verification window and messaging.
Order Action Selection	You can specify what the software does to the Action selection after you've placed an order or entered a new symbol. You can choose to Clear Action, Maintain Action, or Set Action to "Close" if the symbol has an open position. Or you can choose to view the Action selections as buttons by choosing Use Trade ticket with Order Action buttons.
Price Increment	Controls the increase or decrease in price when using the up/down arrows for the price fields in the Trade Ticket.
Auto-Cancel ECN/NSDQ	The number of seconds that direct ECN & NSDQ orders are live before the system auto-cancels them. A value of 0 disables auto-cancel. The Auto-Cancel is disabled by default.
Cancel Button Selection	You can specify whether the Cancel button within all Trade tools will cancel the last submitted order for the current symbol or cancel all equity orders for the current symbol.
Commissions	Use these fields to set the equity and option commissions to use when estimating the cost or proceeds that will result from the trade. You can set commissions per trade or per stock/contract, depending on your commission structure.
