The “Group” and “Actions” columns appear only in the Open Orders tab.

Futures Trading Tools
If you’ve linked a Futures exchange account, the Terminal unlocks additional tools:
7. "Reduce Only" Order Type
Ensures your order closes an open position without creating a new position in the opposite direction.
8. Leverage Control Panel
Select Cross leverage or set an Isolated leverage.
Note
Binance Futures default to Cross Margin mode, which can only be changed on the exchange.
9. Scalping Widget
Designed for fast-moving trades, the Scalping Widget allows quick Long and Short trades with minimal input.
Keyboard shortcuts are supported for even faster execution.
Important
Scalping is unavailable if Hedge Mode is enabled on the exchange. Disable Hedge Mode to use this tool.
