I still can't seem to figure out how to short a stock on SSR. I always get this error: "Short marketable limit order disabled due to SSR!" This is in SIM, is there a known workaround? My short hotkey: StopPrice=Price+0;DefShare=BP*0.95;Price=Price-Bid+0.05;SShare=37/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price=Bid-0.05;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send;DefShare=200;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice+0.05 ACT:BUY STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+;

Quick question. The link seems to say this is a DAS and IB sign up page however on step 2 it asks for IB account # and IB username So I'm guessing first I should start an application with IB and open an account through interactivebrokers.ca and then after I'm approved and have an IB account I can follow this link to get the DAS package and link it? Thanks!

Great! I've marked myself down on the sheet. Hopefully the weather stays somewhat dry for my motorbike ride over from Vic.

Quite interested. What's the start time? I'm in Victoria but depending on the start time might not be able to make the last ferry back I'm guessing 😞

I've only been a part of BBT for around 3 weeks and have absolutely been loving it! All the moderators along with Andrew have been very helpful with any questions I've had and the experience I've gained from other members and seeing moderators + Andrew trade live is invaluable!! I also agree with Aiman. Being able to see Andrew stick around once a week or something for another 20-30 minutes or an hour would be awesome! Hearing his thoughts on his trades and seeing the way he manages things and watches stocks is so incredibly helpful and where I feel I learn so much. Being able to extend that not with him necessarily trading longer as Aiman mentioned but just hearing him discuss what he's seeing or give input to what others are seeing/watching would be really cool and I think lots of other members might enjoy this learning opportunity as well.

Sorry if this was already asked before but I couldn't seem to find it. It seems when I use the Short hotkey on a SSR stock it gives an error. I believe this is because I'm using the DAS Simulator so it is not linked to IB and wont automatically switch it over to the correct order to fill? Is there a way to modify the script so it will also fill on a SSR stocks in the DAS simulator? Or even a separate hotkey with modified script specifically for SSR stocks? This is my current Short hotkey script: DefShare=BP*0.95;Price=Price-Bid+0.01;SShare=75/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price=Bid-0.05;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send;DefShare=100; Cheers!
