you can use DAS with CMEG broker even with smaller account.

well i am happy to help but if you do not tell what is wrong and what you are trying to do i just cannot guess... anyway it would be best if you describe what hotkey you think you need and the hotkey script you use for that

wouldn't it be better to open the entry with the stop loss already? also you can click to the chart and set the stop where you clicked easily CXL ALLSYMB;Route=Stop;Share=Pos;StopPrice=Price;StopType=MARKET;TIF=DAY;Send=Reverse;

first of all sorry to hear about the blowup but we are honest here so the blow up has nothing to do with the hotkeys. you need to accept that. and you need to stop doing the wrong things and decisions which made you the loss. observations 1. depends on your broker, there are some route specifics mentioned in this topic so i wonder you did not know. 2. actually it is the other way around as during pre and post market the market orders do not work - this is by design, nothing to do with hotkeys or DAS 3. best if you share the very specific case which you describe that does not work q&a 1. you use the same broker for the demo account and live account or you use DAS demo and broker account for live trading? 2. short selling depends on the availability of the shares to be borrowed to you from the brokers customers 3. yes there are. route for IBKR is SMRTL and LIMIT for CMEG also TIF is DAY+ for IBKR if you want the order to be valid for premarket and postmarket while DAY is only for market open sessions. in CMEG there is only TIF DAY for all trades. 4. in the first post of this thread is the always latest link to download. i do not believe you have a problem with the excel sheet 5. post your hotkey.htk file and describe what is wrong and when. follow what is written in the file to setup your DAS 6. setup risk controls! max daily loss at least at your broker. in CMEG you need to write them to set it up for you. trade with max $10-$20 risk per trade and use the static risk hotkey from the file. do not expect to be profitable the following 6-24 months. do not trade with the attitude you need to make it back as it is most probable you will not be able to do so in the next few months.

Hi Jeremy i am affraid that the PC you are after does not support 4 monitors. Otherwise the pc is suitable 2. 3. budget is fine 4. better to buy a PC which supports 4 monitors OOB on the GPU to avoid any problems with USB and adapters. or just buy an addon GPU to the PC you are purchasing if it is a branded PC

what i did not like at TWS is that if you update it, some things just works differently. like the orders for static risk were suddenly impossible because they changed the order types. the missing of risk controls was the biggest con. i tried to replace the risk controls with some automation sw over the API but it was not working do i switched to DAS and despite the monthly price it saved me a lot of money

yeah exactly as you said its the send vs load

finding what you are good at and what to work on what do i trade most this month lets see the stats for those 3BAR play this year this month evolution ABCD this year this month evolution Parabolic reversals this year this month evolution so obviously i am losing money on the parabolic reversals. lets see the reason for that. look at the setups statistics when i have done no mistakes i see 50% win rate for parabolic reversals which is the same as for 3bar play so the problem is i do many mistakes=i take trades which i should have not taken=i am missing some entry rules lets see this months most costly mistakes on that setup so i took 4 times too big size and 3 hulk trades and 3 revenge trades and 2x4 times broke the entry rules. It is easy to see, now it will be harder to implement. If you struggle and wanna help with some stats, i am happy to help you fiding your problem.

that advice is very very dangerous. you can very easily lose 10% of your account like this

in the chatroom you have the bezninga plugin so you can use that. there are also live alerts read by a human if something is happening so you can use that too.

just came to this device which seems to be a great option if you are looking for a small trading machine https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Mini-PcBarebone/BSi5-1135G7-rev-10#kf https://www.gigabyte.com/us/Mini-PcBarebone/BSi7-1165G7-rev-10/sp#sp

hi Bibonow, to be honest i do not remember anymore. i am still oscilating shallow below zero draging the account down doing different mistakes. currently big problem with overtrading and still pushing trades - problem with patience before entry
