How to set up order preferences in FYERS Scalper Terminal

How do I set up my order preferences in the Scalper Terminal?

To help you trade faster and more efficiently, the Fyers Scalper Terminal lets you customise your order preferences. These settings are applied exclusively to the Scalper Terminal, allowing you to define how your trades are placed—down to order type, quantity, and stop-loss methods.

How to set order preferences in Fyers Scalper Terminal

1. Access Scalper settings

  • Click on the Settings icon available below the charts.
  • Select your order preferences from the Scalper settings.

2. Customise your preferences

  • Order Type: Choose either market or limit order as your default.
  • Lot Size: Set your default lot size for faster order placement.
  • Stop-Loss Settings: Configure your default stop-loss in:
    • Absolute price terms
    • Percentage value
    • Points

3. Save and apply

  • Your preferences are automatically saved.
  • These settings apply only to the Scalper Terminal and do not affect other FYERS platforms.

What if...?

ScenarioExplanation
What if I change platforms?Preferences set in the Scalper Terminal will not carry over to FYERS Web or Mobile. You’ll need to configure preferences separately in those environments.
What if my order preferences aren’t saving?Ensure you are using the latest version of the FYERS platform and that browser cache isn’t interfering with saved settings. Try clearing cache and reloading.
Can I reset to defaults?Currently, there is no one-click reset, but you can manually change each setting back to your preferred default.
Setting your preferences helps place orders faster, but it won't skip the order confirmation if it's turned on. Always double check settings before high-frequency trading.
