Timeframe Selector
Available timeframes: 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 4h, 1d, 1w. Click any timeframe button in the chart header to switch. The chart loads historical candles and begins streaming live updates.

Candle Countdown
A countdown timer beside the current price shows the remaining time until the current candle closes. This helps time entries relative to candle structure.
Position Overlays
When you have open positions, the chart draws horizontal lines at your entry price, stop loss, take profit levels, and liquidation price. These update in real time as mark price moves.
//Trade Entry
The trade sidebar on the right side of the terminal is your primary order entry interface. Expand it by clicking the Zap icon or pressing F5.
Direction
Select Long (buy) or Short (sell) using the toggle at the top of the sidebar. Keyboard shortcuts: L for Long, S for Short, R to reverse.
//Order Types
A limit order executes at your specified price or better. You pay maker fees (typically lower). The order sits in the orderbook until the market reaches your price. Use keyboard shortcut I to switch to Limit.
//Margin Mode & Leverage
Margin Mode
| Mode | Behavior | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Isolated | Loss is capped at the position margin. If liquidated, only the margin allocated to this position is lost. | When you want to limit maximum loss to a defined amount |
| Cross | Your full account balance acts as margin. Other positions can absorb drawdown. | When you want to avoid liquidation during temporary drawdown |
Leverage
Drag the leverage slider or click a preset button to set leverage. The range depends on the exchange and pair — some pairs support up to 100x or higher. Keyboard shortcuts: 1 through 5 for the five leverage presets.
//Stop Loss & Take Profit
Stop Loss
Enter a price level to set your stop loss. Keyboard shortcut: Z to focus the SL field. The risk sizing engine uses the distance between entry and SL to calculate position size when Risk % mode is active.
Take Profit
Set up to 4 take profit levels. Each TP level has:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Price | The target exit price for this TP level |
| Type | Limit (resting order at exact price) or Trigger (market order when price is hit) |
| Size % | Percentage of the position to close at this level |
When using multiple TP levels, the size percentages must sum to 100%. The terminal validates this and shows a warning if the total is off.
Trade Metrics
When both SL and TP are set, the sidebar displays: SL distance (%), R:R ratio, and TP distance (%). These update in real time as you adjust levels.
//Risk-Based Position Sizing
Instead of entering a position size manually, Beneat calculates it from your account balance, the distance to your stop loss, and your chosen risk percentage.
Set a Stop Loss
Enter your SL price. This defines the risk distance per contract.
Choose a Risk %
Click a preset (0.5%, 1%, 2%, 5%) or type a custom value. Keyboard: Alt+1 through Alt+5.
Size is Calculated
The terminal computes: position size = (equity × risk%) ÷ (SL distance × contract value). The result appears as both contracts and dollar risk.
//Pre-Trade Cost Breakdown
Before submitting an order, Pro mode displays a cost breakdown:
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Entry Fee | Maker or taker fee for opening the position, based on your order type |
| Exit Fee | Estimated fee on exit (assumes same order type) |
| Slippage | Estimated slippage based on current orderbook depth at your order size |
| Round-Trip Cost | Total cost to open and close at breakeven — the true cost of the trade |
| Depth Badge | Green = deep liquidity, Yellow = moderate impact, Red = significant slippage expected |
//Order Execution
Trade Confirmation
By default, clicking Execute opens a confirmation dialog showing the complete order summary: direction, symbol, order type, entry price, stop loss (with distance %), take profit levels (with distance %), position size, notional value, leverage, and risk as both dollar amount and percentage of equity.
In Pro mode, the confirmation also includes a detailed cost summary with fee breakdown and estimated slippage.
Quick Execute Mode
Enable Quick Execute in the profile dropdown to skip the confirmation dialog. Orders submit immediately when you click Execute.
Risk Engine Validation
If the risk engine blocks your trade, the Execute button is disabled and the reasons are listed below it. Common blocks include: daily loss limit reached, trade cooldown active, R:R ratio below minimum, or position size exceeds maximum. Adjust your order parameters to resolve the block.
