Ok thanks.

So this is basically using the double click method to enter a position?
-
I'm trying to set a price target at 3R on entry. I've tried with a price target and range order but none are working. Actually it works when I hit the kotkey twice but not once. StopPrice=Ask*0.99;DefShare=BP*0.99;Price=Ask-StopPrice+0.01;SShare=3/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=200;CXL ALLSYMB;Route=Limit;Share=Pos*1;Price=AvgCost-StopPrice;Price=Price*3;Price=Price+AvgCost;Price=Round2;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send

Not sure what you mean about what your R is. One of the basic hotkeys is the Price-Target. How can that work if DAS doesn't know what your R is?
-
Would you mind taking a quick look at my limit order. I think the hotkey edited something in the script that is not letting it calculate correctly. I am trying to set a limit order at 3R. This is the script: Route=Limit;Share=Pos*1;Price=AvgCost-StopPrice;Price=Price*3;Price=Price+AvgCost;Price=Round2;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send A range order is not working also. Thank you!

I guess just the way I process trades. I can't get in the habit of clicking before I'm ready to enter.
-
I think I just need to adjust the settings until I find the sweet spot. I can’t adjust to clicking to enter I feel like I’m always late on entries.

So I have one more question for you, apparently you aren't done with me yet lol. I noticed from using this in sim replay that as I trade different stocks with a wide range of prices the stop significantly gets closer or farther away from my entry. For example, If I use the default setting while trading AAPL, it will set a stop about $1.50 from entry. But if I trade a 20 dollar stock it will set a stop $.2 from my entry, which can hardly tick on my chart and fly through my stop. Do you know of any way to make it consistent and put the stop a percentage of distance on the chart? So no matter what price the stock is on the same time frame chart the stop will be in the same place on my screen? Hope that makes sense. Thanks!

Lol you got it.

Looks good so far, thanks a lot for your help!

What do you mean syntax?

Looks like it's giving me the same error: Set default share to 100 Error:Invalid Shares! Set default share to 886 Set default share to 886 AMD Bid:106.15 Ask:106.16 Do you have any ideas on what needs to change?
-
That one works, thanks a lot! Would you mind posting the short hotkey, it's doing the same as my long key.
-
Same problem, sorry this is such a pain. Set default share to 400 Error:Invalid Shares! Set default share to 892 Set default share to 892 AMD Bid:106.36 Ask:107.39 StopPrice=Round2;StopPrice=Ask*0.99;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=25/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.2 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+; It's still trying to take way too many shares.

Yes it worked while double clicking. this is what I was using: StopPrice=Price-0.01;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=10/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.2 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+; Now it is this: StopPrice=Round2;StopPrice=Ask*99;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=10/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.2 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+;

Still getting this same error: Set default share to 400 Error:Invalid Shares! Set default share to 2523 Set default share to 2523 NIO Bid:38.16 Ask:38.17 It looks like it's trying to take 2523 shares of NIO when $10 risk would be around 20 shares. Not sure why this is throwing it off.
-
Like this? StopPrice=Ask*0.99;StopPrice=Round2;
-
What do you mean round2 parameter?
-
It looks like this change works but only on stocks less than about $10. Anything higher priced and it doesn't enter a position. This is what it says in the montage: Set default share to 400 Error:Invalid Shares! Set default share to 2525 Set default share to 2525 NIO Bid:38.28 Ask:38.29
-
This is my long hotkey do you think you can highlight what you mean when you say change the stop price calculation? StopPrice=Price-0.01;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=10/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.2 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+;
-
Are you sure it isn’t price*.01? Wouldn’t 100*.99 give me a $99 stop? So instead of StopPrice=Price-0.01; I would want StopPrice=Price*0.01?
-
I am having issues with the double clicking required to enter a position. Is there a way to change the hotkey script to calculate share size to just as an example as a %of the stock price and use that to calculate entry size and stop placement instead of using the calculation from the double click? For example, stock is priced at $100, so using that price*10% your stop would be set and calculated as if you double clicked $1 below for your stop? Thanks

I'm having an issue where the hotkey will sometimes not fill and act like a limit order that just sits open. Kind of a strange situation, but it's pretty frustrating and I'm not sure what is going wrong because I got it directly from the spreadsheet. Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong? Here is the script that I am using: StopPrice=Price-0.01;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=50/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=LIMIT;Price= Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.3 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+;

I am looking to use these hotkeys in the 1besttrader competition starting soon. There are a few requirements such as having no more than $50,000 in any one security and a max share size of 2500. Does anyone know a way to configure the hotkeys to take the most buying power possible while staying within these two restrictions?
