What is a Workspace?
Workspaces are personalized, customizable environments that allow you to organize and arrange various widgets such as trading tools, charts, and modules according to your preferences. This feature helps you create multiple setups tailored to specific trading strategies.
A Workspace acts as your trading dashboard, where you can:
Organize charts, order books, trade history, and widgets.
Save multiple configurations for different trading strategies (e.g., scalping vs. swing trading).
Quickly switch between setups to adapt to market conditions.
