Traders Tech Tools (TTT): Another tool for speeding up a traders process. The tool can be used to copy and transfer a symbol from any source into a defined DAS montage. Its developed using AutoHotKey with the editing tool being Scite4AutoHotKey. This is version 1.0, next version will have Voice Recognition so the spoken word can be used to enter the symbol. Any comments, feedback, criticisms are welcomed. Community enhancements are also welcomed. More TTT will be coming over the next months. --------------------------------------------------------------Code Below--------------------------------------------------------------------- /* AutoHotKey script to send a highlighted %SYMB% into the DAS Main Montage from any externally selected source i.e. Chat Room, News Websites, Docs and emails, other trading platforms. */ #SingleInstance Force #NoTrayIcon ; Select text first with mouse then proceed with this hotkey.....SHIFT + Right Mouse Button +RButton:: ; Holding SHIFT with right mouse button to activate, clipboard := "" ; Empty the clipboard.

Generally do not need my keyboard as it slows down the trading processes. Keyboard is only required to type alphanumeric characters, but with this quick copy/paste hotkey function that is eliminated for symbols. */ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------End------------------------------------------------------------------------------- @Justin @KyleK29, @Paul aka Aurbano

@Alastair if that helps you, here is the code for it getting the news from FinViz ... Please, before first execution install the library : pip install tabulate Then you can set up a button in DAS that will link to the script this way: python finviznews.py $TICKER1 [$TICKER2] ... You will get a nice table with all the header news like this : As usual, upload limitations force to rename the file with the extension .TXT ..... do not forget to rename the file with the extension .PY after download. Enjoy! Paul finviznews.txt

Skip this post if you don't have a StreamDeck and / or aren't comfortable doing custom macros in your SD config. Advanced Uses: If you're adventurous and own a StreamDeck, you can do the swap automatically (so place once and then return to your default). In this example, I have the following DAS Config: Default Line: ALT+D (this is: HorizontalLine, DotLine, Black, 1px) Green Line: ALT+G (this is: HorizontalLine, DotLine, Green, 2px) Horizontal Line Tool: CTRL+ALT+L Using a StreamDeck extension "SuperMacro" (by BarRaider), I setup a "Super Macro" (type) hotkey in Stream Deck with this script in the Short-Press Macro box: {{CTRL}{ALT}{L}} {{ALT}{G}} {{LBUTTON}} {{ALT}{D}} Now, when I'm on the chart, I hover my mouse pointer over where I want to place a special line (like Moving Averages on the Daily Chart), I can simply hit my GREEN-LINE Button and it'll: Trigger the Line Tool --> { {CTRL}}{ALT}{L} } Set Line Config to Green --> { {ALT}{G} } Send the Left Mouse Button --> { {LBUTTON} } Set Line Config back to my Default Line { {ALT}{D} } Thus, it's a one key operation to place the special color line.
