Actions Tab
Features in the "Actions" tab in Neovest's "Montage Preferences" box let you add Action Button panels to a Neovest Order Entry Montage window. Once you have added one or more panels, you may begin to add individual Action Buttons to the panels.
Action Buttons are designed to let you quickly send single or multiple orders on a specific symbol from a Neovest Order Entry Montage window. Neovest lets you assign specific order criteria to an Action Button, which enables you to click on the Action Button to automatically populate a confirm box with your preset order information and subsequently send up to 10 different orders at one time.
The following instructions explain how you may add Action Button panels to a Neovest Order Entry Montage window via the "Actions" tab. Instructions are also provided that explain how you may select the type, style, and size of font for the Action Buttons:
With an Order Entry Montage window open on your screen, click the gear icon, located on the far-right of the toolbar.
Click the "Preferences" icon on the drop-down menu that appears.
Once the "Montage Preferences" box appears, select the "Actions" tab.
The following table provides descriptions of the features in the "Actions" tab that you may use to (1) add Action Button panels to a Neovest Order Entry Montage window and (2) select the type, style, and size of font for the Action Buttons that you wish to add to the Action Button panels:
