General settings, interface
The Secret Terminal interface is more than a collection of windows: it is a flexible, intuitive workspace builder. You can adapt your working environment to any trading style while maintaining the ideal balance between powerful functionality and visual simplicity. The main principle is that everything should be within reach without overwhelming you with unnecessary information.
Workspaces (WORKSPACE)
Create an unlimited number of personal workspaces for different tasks.
- Flexible layout: Arrange modules in whatever way works best for you. Each workspace represents a separate trading scenario, such as Scalping, Position Trading, or Smart Money.
- Autosave: You do not need to click Save. The terminal instantly saves the position of every window and the settings within the workspace to your local profile.
- Easy switching: switch between workspaces with a single click, instantly shifting your focus without losing any data.

Appearance and visual comfort
We have created an interface that is pleasant to use. Its aesthetics support your results and comfort throughout the entire trading session.
- Interface themes: Choose between the classic Dark and Light themes. Each is carefully balanced for contrast and color palette.
- Professional customization: In the separate chart/order book settings window, you can fine-tune the colors of all elements and the fonts to create your terminal’s individual style.
- Ready-made designer presets: Our designers regularly release exclusive themes. We select the ideal color combinations for you: all you need to do is download a theme file from our Telegram channel and apply it.

Linked windows (Linking)
The Linking feature lets you combine modules, such as the chart, order book, and quotes, into unified, intelligent groups.
- How it works: when you link modules into a group and select a ticker in the quotes, both the chart and the order book instantly switch to that coin.
- Efficiency: You do not need to enter the instrument name separately in every window. Control your entire workspace with a single click.
Controls: Hotkeys and mouse trading
This is exactly what the developers emphasize. Hotkeys let you trade and make decisions significantly faster than a typical exchange user trading through a browser.
1. Hotkeys:
- Instant actions: Buy, sell, or make an emergency exit with a single key.
- The Ctrl Sell feature: lets you instantly close your entire position if the market moves against you. This is a critical tool for protecting your trading capital.
- Personalized settings: You decide what each key does in the Settings → Hotkeys menu.
Note:
You can find more detailed information about hotkeys in this article↗.
2. Intuitive mouse trading:
for those who prefer visual controls, the terminal offers a set of quick actions:
- Placing orders: Enter a position and place limit orders with a single click directly in the order book.
- Drag-and-Drop controls: simply click and hold an active order with the left mouse button, then drag it to a new price level.
- Instant cancellation: Cancel active orders with a double-click (Mouse1).
Tip from the developers: Start by setting up 2-3 main keys for entering and exiting trades, and combine them with dragging orders using the mouse. You will immediately notice the difference in speed.
