Sending it

Executing a trade decisively and without hesitation, often with the implication that little analysis was involved.

Send it is the language of commitment, borrowed from action sports. In trading rooms it is used both for a well-rehearsed entry taken without flinching and for a reckless click, and the tone rarely distinguishes them.

The distinction that matters is what happened before the click. Decisiveness on a pre-planned setup is a skill worth developing, and it is the cure for hesitation. Decisiveness on an unplanned one is just speed, and speed is not an edge.
