Insilico Terminal

a thread 🧵 Image
In this thread, I will cover the following:

- specific entry use cases using terminal
- hotkeys to enter at limit most of the time
- account switching
- cli commands I like to use
- my hotkeys at the end of thread
my setup

I use insilico alongside my exo desktop as a side panel for my execution.

Then once ive seen the reaction I may want to see within exo, I'm able to pull the trigger as quickly as possible using some optimisation with my Insilico setup and with the use of hotkeys Image
thoughts

seeing a reaction then being able to execute as if I was executing at market but instead being able to get in at limit was my aim.

sounds impossible, but with patience, hotkeys and stats I found it possible.
hotkeys

- scale buy/sell within a small range (mine is 0.01%-0.08%) from current price and placing limits within that small range using a hotkey.

- chase buy/sell for a distance of X% to be able to get into a move that Is being pushed up/down aggressively by one side. Image
MAE

For the past 380+ trades, my MAE on my winners has always been at the minimum of 0.1% meaning I never truly time the $ high or low.

It makes sense to take advantage of entering at limit using the scale function with a hotkey since I'm always offside at some point by 0.1%.
hotkeys (2)

- chase cancel (cancels my chase order if left running)
- cancel all orders

These are just a few but within my system, they are the most important that I am using most frequently.
CLI commands I like

"pstop at (price or % away from price)" positions links a stop in place to place a stop loss for your current position.

"chase close (% of position)" closes a % of my current position quickly If I feel it's likely for price to turn around Image
DOM

I've also configured some hotkeys to be able to trade via the DOM within Insilico.

the lots function with the multiplier in my opinion allows for more accurate and quicker position sizing if needed. Image
account switching

switching hotkeys between accounts, for quick access to a multi-account layout.

simply shift+click anywhere within the header section for the panel with the account to enable your hotkeys for that account Image
Using the hotkeys I've discussed

head over to the menu bar to visit the hotkey and variable center where you can edit the default settings I have set for you.

Liquidations (REKT)

a thread 🧵 Image
in this thread, I will cover the following:

- liquidation settings
- filtering larger liquidations
- where I look for liquidations
- exo specific rekt settings
settings within @ExochartsC

using rekt within the FPBS is how I found it to be most beneficial, using rekt all however, if you have enough screen space I would recommend having 2 separate rows for rekt, one for rekt long and the other for rekt short. Image

Gaps (setup explained)

a thread 🧵 Image
in this thread, I will cover the following:

- identifying the level to trade
- execution at the level
- invalidations
- pros & cons
- other nuances
Im calling this gaps as it is simply the gap between one swing low/high on the chart to the next.

that gap whether it be small or large can offer a decent setup upon its first initial touch.

failed auctions

a thread 🧵 Image
in this thread, I will cover the following:

- my way of trading a failed auction
- identifying a potential failed auction
- entry + invalidations
- optimizing your invalidation
- further context using order flow
basics

you have built up an area of value

fixed range tool for example or merging ranges together.

price attempts to shift move and break outside of value in one direction or another,

however, fails thus generally seeing follow-through to the opposite side of the range Image
