DOM Enhancements – Smart Order Functionality

Suggestion:

I'd like to suggest a major usability enhancement for the DOM in Topstep X, inspired by leading platforms like Jigsaw.

Smart/Auto Order Placement:
When in a position, allow left-click functionality to adapt based on position direction and click location relative to price:

• If Long:

  • Left-click below current price = Place a Stop Order

  • Left-click above current price = Place a Limit Order

• If Short:

  • Left-click above current price = Place a Stop Order

  • Left-click below current price = Place a Limit Order

This intuitive behavior is known as Smart or Auto Orders and is widely adopted by professional-grade DOMs.

Why this matters:
Currently, placing a stop order requires a right-click. But if you slightly miss the DOM column, it triggers the browser’s right-click menu — a critical issue when scalping or managing fast-moving trades. In those moments, a single mis-click can cost real money.

Adding this Smart Order functionality would:

• Eliminate reliance on right-click (and browser interference)

• Speed up execution

• Improve trader accuracy and efficiency

• Align Topstep X with industry-standard DOMs

Please consider this for future updates. It's a small change that can significantly elevate the DOM experience for active traders.
