    Here are some of the biggest premarket US stock movers today - Dec. 19 2024 The Federal Reserve cut its key interest rate by 0.25% and signaled a cautious approach to further cuts. It now expects only two more rate reductions in 2025, down from four projected in September. The Supreme Court will hear arguments on Jan. 10 regarding a law that could ban ByteDance’s TikTok. The ruling could have implications for $META and other social media companies. OpenAI launched 1-800-CHATGPT, allowing users to interact with its chatbot by phone or WhatsApp. Consumers will get 15 minutes free per month, expanding the AI tool’s accessibility. $AAPL is reportedly in talks with Tencent and ByteDance to integrate their AI models into iPhones sold in China, a key market for the tech giant, according to Reuters. $MU is down 11.6% after issuing weak second-quarter guidance despite beating earnings expectations. $TSLA is up 3.5% premarket, rebounding after an 8% decline on Wednesday.

    I can't seem to get this to work, does it require any variables or a certain version of DAS?

    Hi, I’m Rogier from Amsterdam, and have been a day trading student since March. In pursuit of improvement, I joined Bear Bull Traders in November. For the last 20 years I’ve worked in media as a freelancer, mostly as a video editor for TV and advertisement. But since 2023 I've grown increasingly disillusioned with the state and direction of the industry, and felt more exploited than creatively challenged, having little faith this would improve in the future. During my extensive search for alternative paths, it was ultimately Andrew's book that set me on my journey to become a day trader. What I most appreciated about How to Day Trade for a Living was its clear, straightforward, no-fluff approach. Focusing on day trading as a skilled profession that demands discipline and commitment. What resonated with me most was the emphasis on crafting a system that aligns with your personality, adapting methodologies rather than copying others, which mirrored my workflow as an editor. It’s this process that reignited my enthusiasm I had been sorely lacking in my other ventures. After the theory introduction through the book, I decided to join a local community for my second phase of education. Living in the Netherlands, I wanted to learn from traders in the same time zone, as their schedule would be different from those trading in the morning. So, I enrolled in the Mentored Mastery course at the Trade Academy. Unfortunately, this didn’t turn out to be the right fit for me. Too beginner focused and lacking the depth I desired. So I still relied a lot on alternate sources to educate myself. Trade Academy has a collaboration with the all-in-one platform Ufunded, which is significantly inferior to DAS and lacks essential tools like paper trading, hotkeys, and replay functionality. Tools that have been most crucial to my process and progress, since I always start my trading days reviewing my previous day trades and replaying my mistakes. This has proven to be the most valuable trial and error loop for spotting my errors, refining my setups and building confidence. At the moment I’m still paper trading and aim to go live at the start of 2025. My weaknesses are that I still experiment a lot and should cultivate patience better. Building consistency is my current priority. The biggest challenge is being able to assess all strategy necessary indicators at the same time. My mistakes are mostly some tiny element I overlooked, too focused on one indicator while forgetting to check another. So that is what I need to keep improving in the coming months. My current circumstances are also not ideal for a Day Trader. I’m still active as a freelancer on a sinking ship and also have a nine year old son and family to support. And until you are profitable, it’s also not something your surroundings take very seriously, warning about risks without understanding the principles. Mistaken for a desire to get rich quick and other misconceptions, instead of being curious about what it actually entails. It’s the analytical process of day trading that appeals to me the most, the discipline it requires, the room for creativity, designing a tailor-made systematic workflow around your personality, that you can perform independently and without the need for self promotion. So I’m looking forward to making the shift from the amateurs to the pros at BBT, building on the fundamentals from Andrew’s book, that made me want to fully commit. I'm confident that BBT is the right fit for me. Very motivated to learn, share with this dedicated community, and take my trading to the next level.

    @members due to very profund changes in the chatroom and my lack of time in the past months the theme shared in the first post of this topic no longer work. I took some time to update the icons for the 6 tabs and few things more. Here is the result. Please refer to the first post of this thread to check how to setup it up ! protradingroom_v3.txt

    @Denis Panfilov once you open TWS, go to the main menú and open a chat with support. That is the fastest way. Tickets usually get responses in 1 day or 2 depending the matter. Phone works fine at some hours only.

    Hi All, I recently started using IB and find their support as not available. I submitted queries via web ticket and no one is replying back. Tried calling but after 40 mins on hold I gave up. Does anyone else have the same issue? Anyone gas a better way to get through to them? I was with Fidelity before and you get a live rep within minutes with them… Thank you!

    Hi, i still don't get the difference between these "normal" plans and the one for BBT Members: I want to trade stocks and I would like lvl 2 like Thor etc. As far as I understand the plans the "normal" deluxe user plan with swap from OPRA to Arca would match my requirements. But what is the bonus for the BBT members in the plans ... this plans are really not good described. Another question: Has the simulator DAS Plan really the same price as the full IB plan ? Thanks in advance

    1 min ORB algo. Here is the backtest for the 1min NVDA Long that I created (R=$200) I have been mining the data to see the possibility of making ORB algos for the last couple of weeks. I looked at 1min ORB first using NVDA long direction. There seems to be about 2.5 years of data where ORB setup could be used. I did try and read a few algo books, but didn't find any useful. Some interviews in the Market Wizards books I found very useful for algo trading. The rest of my method I figured out on the way. I have been profitably trading algos on Futures for almost 2 years now. The only issue I have is my algos trigger a trade at most once a week. Not enough. So looking for more setups. So I first estimated my parameters and values based on what I have learned from the mons at BBT. I then backtested only the last 3 months using Ninjatrader and see if a profitable algo is even possible. This time it was, but these results are useless except for feasibility. I then walk through each parameter to see what has correlation. Interestingly enough almost all the parameters have value limits but not correlation. Except for volume, which the larger the better, and the distance from VWAP, none of the other parameters had correlation except for limits. Though not expected, this is great because it means the parameters are robust. Though Ninjatrader has an optimizer, it usually is not very useful since it curve fits too much. So I manually optimize then run the parameters for the last two years and got mediocre data. But that's normal. Then I use something I learn from one of the Market Wizards, where he uses 2 years ago for optimization and runs the algo on 1 year old data to see if it works. So I noticed, when I used the 1st algo version we were in the red about a year ago. So I used the red time period to optimize. 1min ORB profit when optimized on the recent 3 months then back tested for 2.5 years. I optimize for robustness not profit. I use to make spider web plots (in Excel) with each strand a different parameter and thus try and create a large stable sweet spot. Where the parameters could move around and it will have little affect on the stats. There is almost always a plateau like that, but sometimes it is under water. So if I let Ninjatrader optimize it gives an outragius profit factor of 5.7 with a highly curved fitted solution that if you move any parameter, even slightly, the profit drops off fast. My optimization has a modest PF of 1.7. But all the parameter correlation are gone (even Volume and VWAP). You can move parameter values around, even large amounts with little effect. All the parameter values become min or max limits only. Thus these are the edges of the optimization plateau. Here are the parameter limits: Volume > 300K 1min candle body size > $0.60 1 min candle body size < $2.7 Top 1min candle wick size < $1.10 How far above VWAP when initiating trade > $0.20 and < $2.30 Market opening price Gap for NVDA >$ 0 SPY 1min candle close > -$1.00 Essentially, the algo is saying don't take a NVDA Long when SPY is careening lower. The target and stop are loosely optimized, but are not meaningful since I have a separate trade management algo that takes care of that. For this back test I used a 3 to 1 traget to stop ratio. Then I ran it on the full 2+ years. the data you see is above in the opening graph. Below are the numbers. The max consecutive losers is a little high for my comfort, but its good enough I will start running in sim and create the short version of the algo. Then move on to TSLA, ES and NQ. Thanks for reading to the end. Rob C

    this is not an equivalent of the panic. here is why - this will close only the position of currently selected symbol - it does not use market order to exit the position so you can get just skipped it is also syntatically wrong and here is why - you read the $Pos then use Pos which are two different things if you run the hotkey when montage is in focus - if the spread of the stock you want to exit is wider than 0.25 then you can get skipped very easily the true panic will be possible only once DAS will let us to read all the current opened positions from the trades window. hopefully they will make it possible this later this year. to see how these things work go to https://traderpeter.substack.com/s/dastrader-hotkeys

    you can name the montage windows and hotkeys then call the hotkey executions through the montage object with a $montage.exechotkey("hotkeyname") as mentioned here
  44. Valentin Kolaberdin
    Hi, if i have 2 montage windows, one for "normal" level2 and one ladder view, this hotkey activate first the wrong one, maybe you have a solution for that too? thank you! regards, Valentin

    Hi gang - I have heard some very good feedback off the site so I thought I'd give it a try. I was a member over at Warrior Trading years back, but I am of limited means. This is a strictly an educational adventure for me for the time being. I am here to absorb, and hopefully make a few mentors. Best regards - Jon

    Got an update to this. Now with the Advanced Hotkey IF/Else conditions I was able to get a Post/Pre market PANIC Hotkey created. This will set share size to current position and then put a Sell limit .25 below current Ask if your in a long or a buy .25 above current bid if your in a short. This is then a simple EXIT/PANIC hotkey for both Long & Short for Pre/Post Market hours. Be sure to have 'Hotkey Advanced Script' enabled in DAS configuration before using the script (If your Montage Window name is 'LIVE') Replace the x's between quotes with your Account # Replace Route with desired route CXL ALLSYMB; FocusWindow LIVE; $mon=GetWindowObj("LIVE"); $Pos= GetAccountObj("xxxxxxxx").GetPosition($mon.SYMB).share;if ($Pos<0){Price=Ask+0.25;} else{Price=Bid-0.25;}; $Price=round(Price,2); Share=Pos; Price=$Price;Route="LIMIT";TIF=DAY+;Send=Reverse
