It would be a great addition if it were possible to place stop orders on the ladder with a mouse click, or maybe mouse click with key press.

An example. If a market is trading at 5.0 maybe I want to lay at 6.0 or back at 4.0 if the price breaks out from a range. Currently this is only possible in the 'Rules' tab.

Maybe a right click could be used, just like when placing a stop loss?

No I'm aware of the stop loss which closes an existing trade when a price is touched. I would like the same ability to open a new trade when a price is touched.

Ah okay, don't think that is possible. Perhaps it can be done in excel?

Yes I have been looking into Excel and that makes most things possible.

Would be good if it could be done with the mouse on the ladder though.

I think this has been suggested before and wholeheartedly endorse it. Surely a right click could be used, for when no trade is open a right click tries to do a stop loss but says 'Lay 0.00 at 5.6' or whatever. If it could put in a speculative lay or back if there is no open trade it would be great.
