One-click trading is a useful tool available to all traders that allows you to open orders immediately. The purpose of one-click trading is to simplify the trading process.
In trading, the speed of execution of orders is critical, and therefore experienced traders prefer to use one-click trading during periods of high volatility in the market.
In addition to the listed merits, one-click trading has other advantages:
- You can use this function with various types of orders, which can be easily customized according to your trading strategy;
- It allows you to trade directly from the charts;
