You will understand the Market Watch window for monitoring currency pairs, indices, commodities, and other CFD instruments, as well as how to customize symbols, spreads, and contract specifications for accurate analysis.

The course explains how to use the Navigator panel to manage accounts, indicators, expert advisors, scripts, and templates, allowing you to streamline your trading workflow and automate repetitive tasks. You will learn to open, manage, and close trades using different order types, including market orders, pending orders, stop orders, and limit orders, while understanding how execution models affect fills and slippage.

You will also learn how to customize chart templates, save profiles, and create multi-chart layouts for top-down market analysis across multiple timeframes.

Trade management tools such as the Terminal window are explained in detail, including how to monitor open positions, pending orders, account history, exposure, alerts, and news. You will understand how to set stop-loss and take-profit levels directly on charts, modify orders in real time, and use trailing stops to manage risk dynamically.
