πŸ“ˆ The Trading Terminal: Your Manual Trading Interface

In addition to our powerful automated bots, the platform includes a full-featured trading terminal. This interface is for when you want to take direct control, execute a specific trade quickly, or manage your portfolio assets manually.


An Overview of the Trading Screen

The trading terminal brings all the essential tools into one comprehensive view.
