Pick a starter workspace

A starter workspace is a ready-made layout of windows. The first time you open Tradrr, it asks how you like to trade and builds the matching layout for the markets you pick.

The first-run picker

A new account gets a picker called How do you like to trade? It reads Pick a starting layout. You can change it anytime.

1. Click the layout you want. Chart + DOM is selected by default. Double-click to pick it and move on.
2. Click Continue.
3. On Which markets do you trade?, click one or two markets. ES is selected by default.
4. Click Open workspace.

Click Skip for now on the first screen to close the picker without opening a starter. Click Back on the market screen to change the layout.

The four layouts

Start simple, Chart + DOM and Prop firm are docked, so the windows fit together with no gaps. See Docked and floating layouts.

Choose your markets

• With Start simple you pick one market for the chart.
• With the other layouts you pick up to two. Your first pick opens on the DOM and the main chart. The second opens on the companion chart.
• The number on a selected chip is the order you picked it in.
• If the layout is full, a new pick replaces the last one. Click a selected chip to remove it. At least one market always stays selected.

What happens next

Tradrr opens the workspace. If nothing is connected yet, it also opens Connections so you can add a data connection. Then it offers the quick tour. See Take the quick tour.

Add a starter workspace later

2. Choose Start fresh workspace....
3. In Add a starter workspace, pick a layout and click Continue.
