Getting Started - Logging in and Navigation

Logging in

Once you have the application installed, launch the application and you will see a login screen.  For the BETA, enter your username and password and tap the login button

You will see a screen giving you a choice of which environment you would like to log into.  For the BETA, please select the "Simulation Environment" button.

Navigation

Once you are logged into the application, you will be viewing the "Markets" screen by default.  Tapping the menu icon on the upper left of the screen will open a menu drawer.

A quick summary o the different menu areas:

• Add Market List - Allows you to create a new list of contracts.  The "Markets" menu item will bring you back to the Markets screen from other areas of the application.  Think of the Markets screen as the main area to access quotes, DOMs and Charts.
• Balance Sheet - A detailed view of your account including Net Liquidating Value, Cash, Open/Realized PNL, and Margin.
• Trade - Opens a Trading Ticket with both simple and advanced functions.
• Orders -  A quick link to Your orders
• Notifications - An area to view all system generated notifications
• Trade Desk & Support - Access to Chat with Tradovate's Support Team and Trade Desk
• News - Acess to the Tradovate News Feed
• Reports - Access to reports (An updated interactive reporting module is WIP)
• Settings - An area where applications settings can be accessed
• Share - An area to share information from the app with other applications

Each of these sections will be covered in detail in other pinned posts in the forum
