Worse, Schwab’s Luddite stance exposed us clients to all sort of security issues like wire frauds, wrong account numbers, etc. And having our bank numbers stored independently everywhere to be pulled by anyone any time. Today, to my surprise, Schwab is now available for instant verification on Gemini!!! Seems to work with Truebill too.

If you frequently use the same order settings when placing equity trades, hot keys may help you save time when entering orders. With hot keys, you can assign order settings (everything but the equity symbol) to a key or combination of keys (for example, F5 or Ctrl+B).

In addition to placing orders, you can also use hot keys to:

  • Close open positions: You can create a hot key that will Close a specified number of shares in an open position, or one that will Close All your open positions in the security.
  • Cancel open orders: For the Action, choose Cancel Oldest to create a hot key that will cancel the oldest open order for the security, or Cancel Most Recent to cancel the most recent open order. You can also create a hot key to cancel all orders, using either Cancel All on Symbol or Cancel All, which will cancel all open orders for the account.
