I do not know TOS much but for DAS you can check here if you see its features are useful for you https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/trading-platform-choice

you can use the new syntax for orders but specifically this line drawing has been fixed in 5.7.9.3 only

$PRICE+($TARGETR*2); this is not possible in DASTrader as it dooes not know the mathematical logics and brackets you need to do $PRICE+$TARGETR+$TARGETR instead see the log for the errors you get. there will be an error about route not being "LIMIT" etc. overall you should switch to the new syntax and forget the old one as the calculations done in the old syntax are now useless and it will be easier for you to understand what is going on rather than studying why the switches between SShare and Share are there

solution of 2024 here https://open.substack.com/pub/traderpeter/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part-777?r=1wujo4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part?r=1wujo4 check here if you want to learn how to do it technically but i must warn you that SMARTM route is probably not what you think it is - as described here https://open.substack.com/pub/traderpeter/p/trading-platform-choice?r=1wujo4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

there is one workaround which is very dodgy - you can place a limit order of one share on the desired stop then attach a trigger order to that one that would exit the whole position the 2nd option shall be possible in the new dastrader version which is to be released. (currenty the functionality crashes the whole app) i will be covering this option here https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-advanced-hotkeys-part-4 and the next articles it will have its limits still though

yes i talk to DAS developers and do some testing and proposals to them what you describe is easy to acomplish - you just set the variable one time before any trade to set your BP variable then calculate the 1/3rd from there anyway do not focus on the BP much as it can be misleading as you can have other margin requirements not allowing you to take the position. i do not see any logic in it. if you know your BP is 6 times your initial equity then just count the risk from 1/3rd of the initial equity as shown above regarding the other functionality i do not know i am not using shift or arrow keys to navigate and i am not going back to old syntax anyway

that is not possible and hardly achievable too as ATR is not a static indicator having one formula so you would need to calculate atr(xy) based on the xy custom settings causing ton of problems for the programmers to handle it. so do not expect that to happen anytime soon or ever

no. as written in the article.

then you do exactly what is written there man

it is explained here https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part?r=1wujo4 this hot button is correct. I have no idea what you want to do next with it though.

that is why you can just take the hotkeys i provide there. or ask for the ones you need 🙂

Yes it is a one way street. Never look back. Fix the old syntax hotkeys and look to the future.

You cannot have it on montage yet (being a chart indicator). Maybe I can ask to be able to name a button with a variable then you would see it on montage as a new button. this was possible for years as a chart window now you can have it like this or like this - the yellow lines or like this on a hotkey/hot button all explained here https://open.substack.com/pub/traderpeter/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part-c83?r=1wujo4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web and here https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-advanced-hotkeys-part-4?r=1wujo4

you can have it as a decimal value for years, now you can have it as a custom variable in the variables window or on a button/hotkey as a popup window with the number

can't help you if you do not ask properly. i do not do any youtube videos so you might have watched someone else's vids.

it is in the 2nd article https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part Future/stop order entries with static risk of $20 and attached range (OCO) orders of 3R target also please understand that i moved forward and will not be providing any help in my articles with the old syntax hotkeys as it makes no sense to use it anymore

https://open.substack.com/pub/traderpeter/p/das-advanced-hotkeys-part-4?r=1wujo4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true there you go @meatskin2000 @Yogi_theWanderingTrader

to be honest (and still humble) there is nothing else than my substack as far as i know. DAS documentation does not exist and some of those features are my requests to the DAS programmers so I know how those functions work from our communication only.

https://open.substack.com/pub/traderpeter/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part?r=1wujo4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web to use dynamic risk instead of static risk we can use calculations by reading the Account Object for example: $myACC=GetAccountObj("YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME_HERE"); $myIE=$myACC.equity; then use the $myIE variable instead of the static risk. I will cover it in the next article I am preparing regarding the reading of object properties. Or as I mentioned in the other posts, do it by changing weekly the static risk

https://open.substack.com/pub/traderpeter/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part?r=1wujo4&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web if your account is 50000 just set the static risk to $50.

you can add a route=SMRTL; at the end of each of your scripts. i am affraid that the idea behind your requirement is false

multiple issues here. the order rejection is probably because of the existing orders. you need to cancel the existing stop orders first before placing a new one, otherwise you can hit the buying power limit the other issue might be a subject of the default trading preset or can be probably fixed by addin some dummy order at the end of your stop loss order hotkey. you might reconsider completely your usage of the hotkeys - like i explain here https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-trader-advanced-hotkeys-part
