Choose Your Creation Method
Choose the desired method to create the trade.
Cornix currently offers two methods to create a trade - Manual and Free Text.
Manual
the Manual method allows setting each order and each strategy manually.
Navigate between the Entries, Take Profits and Stop sections to set each one of them separately.
Free Text
The free text option allows you to provide the trade details using a single text message. using the free-text method can be significantly faster than the manual one, especially when creating a trade with specific target prices as opposed to spreading targets with equal distance between them in a price range.
