Got it, thks sir

Aurbano, U think u could create or guide on a new custom style for theses forum pages ? White is too bright on eyes.

Yann ths not a problem. lets exchange emails in private chat during the trading day.

If u delete the file, GlobalTrendLines file, DAS will recreate new one when starting up (with a small notice) so the corruption, if tht is true would go away. DAS SOP is to ask trader to reinstall with latest. I did this initially but then i use it so much, horizontal lines and trend lines, I cannot afford to delete mine again. tht version number u mentioned above is correct ? U can install in NEW directory BUT be careful as the desktop icon/shortcut will be pointing to latest installed version.

Honestly, its hard to debug problems tht cannot be consistently replicated. That was the main reason I have not submitted my version of problem to DAS and just did my work around. If y can capture an example on screen capture tht would help them investigate issue. I will probably mention to them in passing (with my other batch of bugs/fixes/enhancements/dreams), but without any evidence I doubt they would look at it.

Wow, i had/have this exact same problem. I thought it was in my head. LOL My solution: Every time I shutdown DAS I have to shutdown/restart my computer. It seems to be a memory problem. They not managing memory properly. U will notice tht horizontal lines are also jumping around ur charts then settle back to its correct location. If u delete tht file u lose ur trend lines and horizontal lines. So in summary restart ur computer each morning. I will submit this to DAS coz it does annoy me, but the work around is to restart computer. DAS Charting Module is buggy. Check out my new threads "DAS Bugs, Fixes and Enhancements" also "Trade Ideas Bugs, Fixes and Enhancement"

Any interest in this improvement to some fonts in DAS?
Alastair replied to smp's topic in DAS Trader Pro Tips and Tricks
Pls do. As a ex-developer I am going to setup a thread where ALL DAS edits can be discussed and conceptualized b4 being sent to DAS Support. We have some very good resources in this community, crack/sharp developers. Look forward to ur contribution. instructions. All contributions to improve/enhance DAS or any other software are welcomed. We pay every month for the software, and we need to reduce the stress of trading with easy tools. Look out for the thread in next couple of days. -
Hey Robertas, 1. Trade stocks that move, trade stocks that other traders are following. i.e. stocks with volume. 2. Once a stock is moving and u see one of ur setups, it is a potential trade. Thats how I do it.

Thks for this info. Trying to understand how to do Quick Alerts in DAS. This process sounds/seems incomplete, kinda like the quality assurance team did not review properly. DAS needs a visual alert also e.g. flash the chart, Will put in a request to DAS soon, any other mods/fix anyone whts to suggest for a quick alert function (complete in under 3 seconds) which I could include ?

How to quickly add new rows in Market Viewer?
Alastair replied to misterchai's topic in DAS Trader Pro Tips and Tricks
This always annoy me. But i am OCD. lol Fab, Thks for exposure to this ability. I need some help/guidance with this. I have two questions: 1. Need to create a new file everyday instead of "mylist.csv". File name would be WL_YYYYMMDD.csv (i.e. WL_20200419) so I have a history of my lists over time. Can u help with the script to format the file name based on the date ? Would use in the save/export and import function. 2. Add symbol to Mkt Viewer function - currently does not work. Using 7 monitors 7 = 1 + 2 x 3. The single monitor is top left then have 3 over 3. The function seems to look for 4 monitors, does it need to be coded differently for 7 monitors ? Ur thoughts and guidance would be appreciated . -
I second this. DAS is excellent on Order/Transaction processing. They have an advantage here but everything else including charting is a major challenge. In the last release 5.5 they implemented order manipulation on the CHART....and RVOL display only. This is small progress as all other trading apps have these, but progress so I am thankful. Basic scanning and filtering in DAS is weak....made a number of request on this last year August...only RVOL display was implemented (ATR, FLOAT, ADV, SHT FLOAT, RVOL filtering still outstanding). Scanning on these values I see as basic requirements as taught by Mike from SMB Capital others. Quick alerts is also a prob. Mike from SMB and the other folks rely heavily on quick alerts. As a ex-software QA and dev manager, I sent a list of requests/bugs, u need to do the same. Unfortunately some traders may not be aware when something is a bug and how easy it is to fix. But folks if u need a feature u need to ask multiple times. U pay every month for the software. We should get a public thread here for DAS bugs and Request......so we all know wht is a bug and when it was submitted and when it will be implemented. Again remember we pay monthly. This may get blocked.

Success Webinar Topic Requests!
Alastair replied to Abiel's topic in Welcome: Bear Bull Traders Forums
i had asked for an Elliott Wave intro in some other topic ,but we could expand on tht with a series of EW presentations. I think I even suggested a YouTuber (Hippo Cryto) tht currently does extremely good and detailed EW analysis of BTC (he only trades BTC) but his teachings apply to any chart, Multiple Time Frames. Yearly to 1 min. Position, swing and scalping. This would be good exposure to the community, I think. -

WEB UTILITY: DAS Hotkey Line Style Configuration tool.
Alastair replied to KyleK29's topic in DAS Trader Pro Tips and Tricks
Got the Fibline to work but realize u cannot define the fib level percent, only color/style/width. The other BUG i notice is tht with MainMenu-> HotButton->Config->Command value gets truncated with a long script when u exit DAS. So u have type in command every time u start DAS. Works fine otherwise. -

WEB UTILITY: DAS Hotkey Line Style Configuration tool.
Alastair replied to KyleK29's topic in DAS Trader Pro Tips and Tricks
Kyle, Can we get control of the color of the PRICE LEVEL associated with the horizontal line pls. So the price level is the same color as the line. Thks Did it manually but would be helpful to others who not comfortable with scripting language. -
WEB UTILITY: DAS Hotkey Line Style Configuration tool.
Alastair replied to KyleK29's topic in DAS Trader Pro Tips and Tricks
Kyle, this is awesome work again. Asked DAS for this but u have again blown it out of the water. On the Stream deck....EVERYONE has a STREAM DECK....your mobile phone is a STREAM DECK. (Elgato Stream Deck Mobile Apple & Android) Download app from store, 30-day free trial US$2+ per month after. Or try TOUCH Portal from app store (Iphone/Android) Can u do this for Fib Line Tool and Fib Ext tool also so I can create Hot keys for other color coded tools. I use Elliott waves and fibs are important in my analysis. Another issue that u maybe able to help with, DAS passed on it after many email exchanges. Its know as a VISIBILITY feature in other charting applications. Basically in DAS u have GLOBAL and LOCAL but I would like to define a chart object (say a trend line, fib )to only show on DAILY, %M and 1M. Lets bounce idea off each other if u have time via Skype/Zoom -
