As with order entry, we've designed ease of use and an intuitive interface and navigation system into MTrade. You can choose to view working, filled, dead and preset orders along with any possible order errors in great detail. While viewing your orders, you can choose to act upon them directly from the screen you are viewing. For example, on the working orders screen, you can cancel or change a working order simply by selecting the appropriate option on the left side of the screen next to the order. Following is a short demonstration on working with the order status functions of MTrade.

Working with the order status.

In this example, let's assume that you would like to cancel the order that we placed in our order entry example. First, you need to select the Working Order option from the Activity menu.

Once the working order screen is displayed, you need to find the order that you are interested in cancelling. Once found, note that in the first column on the left side of the display the options "Cancel" and "Change" are displayed as links. Since in this example you wish to cancel the order, you would click on that link.

You would then be taken to a cancel order preview window. After confirming that this is in fact the order that you would like to cancel, simply click on the Cancel Order button to submit the cancellation request.

Lastly, a cancellation confirmation window will appear and the status of that order would be automatically changed from working to dead. It would then be viewable on the Dead Order page.

This is one of only several methods for cancelling an order via MTrade. As mentioned above, much greater detail is available by downloading the Quick Start Guide.
