what keys do u have setup on the keyboard to hit bids quick, do auto execs, put out arcas/islands bid and offers and modify the limit price all as fast as possible. i use F1 thru F4 for buys. and 2 thru 4 for sells. arrow keys to modify limit prices and enter to execute and 0 on the number pad to cancel orders and number pad to modify share size
F1 to F4 are to cancel orders F5-F8 are sells for listed (stop, market, limit, nx) F9-F12 are buys for listed ] \ INET sell buy ; ' ARCA sell buy . / BRUT sell buy ins pgup del pgdn are swipe and ecn blast keys num pad is all sizes and size increment/decrement arrow keys are price increment/decrement in pennies and nickels A bunch more lesser used routes and order types with shift and ctrl keys I'm using Hydratrade and you can really customize the hotkeys.
