I need to work on identifying my price targets and the patterns I am trading. I am also working on identifying stocks in play and taking the right share sizes. My biggest issues is also knowing risk reward and know when to stop myself out. Even, though I was positive today I do not feel like, I was positive.

    I'm having an issue since the update where if I use the shift key to create a rectangle on a chart that it then zooms in on, the rectangle will get frozen on the chart. If I click on it then it sometimes will then zoom in on the area, or sometimes it just gets frozen on there even if I change time-frames and I have to restart DAS. Although other times it works fine. Anyone else having this issue?
