Buying Power Settings:

Clients who are being rejected on their Hot Keys for buying power should contact their brokerage when receiving a reject. Brokerages tend to have various rules in place for buying power so if your Hot Key is configured as shown below and you are still receiving a reject, you might want to check with your broker to see what your Buying Power is set to.

Please see below for a brief video on how to setup Stop Limits using Hot Keys.
