Before execution, configure your basic risk controls:

* **Take Profit**
* **Stop Loss**
* **Risk/Reward (RR)**

These parameters can be set directly in the order form or visually adjusted on the chart.

## Reduce-Only

Enable **Reduce-Only** to ensure the order strictly reduces or closes an existing position without accidentally opening a new one.

## Confirmation

Before submission, a confirmation modal will display:

* Order Price
* Quantity
* Order Cost
* Order Value
* Estimated Fee (approximate, based on exchange data)
* TP/SL levels
* Leverage
* Risk and Reward ratio

Click **Confirm** to send the order to the exchange.
