What does RapidShape Ordering do?
RapidShape Ordering is an execution tool that solves the one problem every discretionary trader runs into after finding a setup: the gap between planning a trade on the chart and placing it in an Order Ticket. Entry, Stop, Target, and duration are usually mapped out visually first, then rebuilt manually – configuring ATM settings, calculating stop and target distances – before the order even exists.
Instead of treating planning and execution as two separate steps, RapidShape Ordering turns the drawing itself into the Pending Order. The moment you draw the trade, Entry, Stop, Target, Reward-to-Risk, and order expiration are already visible on the chart, so the full setup can be validated before a single order is triggered.
It's built around three drawing types, Triangle, Rectangle, and Line, each matching a different way traders plan a trade – a complete setup, a reward:risk framework, or a volatility-based entry. Whichever shape you draw, it becomes the order exactly as the trade was planned.
How can RapidShape Ordering improve your execution?
Key ways RapidShape Ordering helps you place trades with less friction and fewer mistakes:
- Stop manually rebuilding a trade inside an Order Ticket after you've already planned it on the chart
- Validate Entry, Stop, Target, and Reward-to-Risk before a Pending Order even exists
- Pick the setup style that matches how you plan trades – complete trade, reward:risk, or volatility-adjusted
- Control exactly how long a pending order stays active through the way you draw it
- Cut the clicks and steps between spotting a setup and getting it live in the market
- Replace manual ATM configuration with a repeatable, drawing-based execution workflow
Key features
How RapidShape Ordering closes the gap between planning and execution:
1. Visual Order Execution
The core interaction model behind RapidShape Ordering – drawings aren't just annotations, they're executable trading instructions:
- Entry, Stop, Target, Reward-to-Risk, and order expiration appear the moment you draw
- The full setup is visible and can be validated before the Pending Order is ever triggered
- The drawing becomes the Pending Order, exactly as the trade was planned
Rule: No trade goes from chart to Order Ticket. It goes from drawing straight to order.
2. Triangle Ordering – Complete trade setup
For traders who plan the whole trade at once:
- Draw your full trade idea as a triangle
- The shape alone builds a complete Pending Order – no separate steps for entry, protection, or target
- Its horizontal length sets how long the order stays active, so expiry is defined the moment you draw
3. Rectangle Ordering – Reward:Risk setup
For traders who think in terms of risk first:
- Define your entry and risk with a rectangle
- RapidShape Ordering completes the trade automatically, applying your preferred reward profile
- The rectangle's horizontal length determines the order duration
4. Line Ordering – ATR-based setup
For traders who don't want to calculate stop distance by hand:
- Mark your entry with a single line
- The rest of the trade builds itself around it, adapting to current market volatility
- The line's horizontal length works the same way as the other shapes: draw longer, stay active longer
5. Duration controlled by the drawing itself
Order expiration isn't a separate setting to configure:
- Every shape's horizontal length doubles as its order duration
- Draw longer, and the Pending Order stays active longer
- One consistent rule applies across Triangle, Rectangle, and Line Ordering
6. Built for chart-based decision-making
RapidShape Ordering stays inside the same workflow you already trade from:
- Executes directly from the chart you already analyzed, not a separate Order Ticket module
- Works the same way whether you plan complete setups, reward:risk trades, or volatility-based entries
- Keeps the visual logic of the trade intact from idea to execution
Key benefits
How RapidShape Ordering changes the moment between finding a setup and placing it:
- See Entry, Stop, Target, Reward-to-Risk, and expiration before the Pending Order is ever triggered
- Move from trade idea to executable Pending Order in seconds, not minutes
- Execute directly from the chart, removing the extra steps between planning and placing
- Prepare the entire trade in advance and let the Pending Order wait for price
- Remove manual stop/target calculations, and the mistakes that come with rebuilding a trade by hand
- Match the execution method to the trade – complete, reward:risk, or volatility-based – instead of using one rigid ticket
