    Hey, that was the case before the SEC changed it back in November 2010. Now shares of a stock cannot be sold short at or below the best bid when it's on SSR.
  2. Justin
    Ah! There it is Stop Orders don't work in the pre-market.

    Hey Gopi, Unless I haven't had enough coffee this morning... I'm thinking that something is backwards. In your photo you're LONG from 12.75, and you've placed a sell order above your price at 12.83. You don't have a stop loss set, which would have to be below your AvgCost of 12.75. Also make sure you use the @Gopi Mani function if you want to grab my attention. I sometime miss posts, but this way I'll get an alert!

    Hey, A couple things. First, with this script, before you hit the hotkey, you need to click on the chart where you want your stop loss to be. That might be why it's not getting a valid price. Second you'll want to change your Route to "Limit" while in sim. StopPrice=Price-0;DefShare=BP*0.925;Price=Ask-Price+0.00;SShare=20/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=200;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.05 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+

    Welcome @GURU! Sounds like you have a well laid out path! Don’t be afraid to ask any questions you may have!

    @forkey I've tried multiple ways to combine them... I can't quite get it. Although this should be possible in the forthcoming version of DAS. @Casey Gates Who is your broker? If you are with IB then you can actually just use the regular short hotkey as IB will automatically price you on the bid+0.01. Otherwise you should use two separate hotkeys. I say "should" because the SSR hotkey will work on regular shorts, but you wouldn't want to use it because you'd get a worse fill than needed.
  7. Justin
    Hmmm that should work.... Maybe try this: CXL ALLSYMB;ROUTE=SMRTL;Price=Bid-0.10;Share=Pos*1;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send
  8. Justin
    Hey @JenniferL and @Dieter There shouldn't be an extra ROUTE=SMRTM on the end of the script. It'll still work, but it is sending an extra function that isn't used. This is all that is required: CXL ALLSYMB;Route=Stop;Price=AvgCost;StopType=MARKET;STOPPRICE=AvgCost;StopPrice=Round2;Share=Pos;TIF=DAY+;Send=Reverse;

    This is a more recent video from Carlos that explains exactly what Replay L1 gets you: It is essentially the ability to go back in time on any stock and replay the chart and price action for the day. But you currently can’t place open orders or see the future bids/asks (L2) through the montage. Apparently they are working on bringing this in the future though!
  10. Justin
    Yes, it is indeed working in the latest beta. No word on a release date though.
  11. Justin
    Wouldn't both stops be in the same spot though? Or are you clicking in a new spot on the chart for each additional entry? Just to clarify you want to adapt Kyle's hotkey so that it executes a range order? As in it enters a trade, places a stop, and a target at 6:1?
  12. Justin
    Hey @evan Trade-Ideas can do this too. They have scans and alerts for all sorts of technical parameters. Have a look here: https://pro.trade-ideas.com/Help.html#configure_window_specific_filters They have ascending triangles, double tops, etc.
  13. Justin
    Not a dumb question at all! You can definitely install it on both computers. It will just automatically sign you out of the one you aren't using.
  14. Justin
    @Matthew This is great Matthew! It's always great to re-watch the content, but having all the information (time, conditions, entry signals, confirmation) in this format, makes it super easy to glance back on! Thanks for putting the work into this!
  15. Justin
    Hey @Greg K ! Welcome Sounds like your background and skills will give you a good mindset going into trading! Feel free to ask any questions you have!
  16. Justin
    Hey Dieter, In order to effectively trade properly, you'll actually need the $150.00/month package from DAS, as it's the cheapest package that gives you Level 2 data. As the 3 month trial from BBT comes with that, the deal that you're getting is substantial!
  17. Justin
    Which is what I linked to above... But I just realized that posting direct links to comments in the forum only works if you know to click that small, silly little arrow pointing to the top right! That's so unhelpful! Otherwise if you click on the main link in the embedded box, it' just brings you to the beginning of the thread! Not at all where you wanted to point someone too! This is my new mission today.
  18. Justin
    Hey Jeffrey, this is actually coming in the new DAS beta. It will allow for multiple price targets to be set and when they are hit it will auto update your stop loss position!
  19. Justin
    That is exactly correct Jad!
  20. Justin
    Unless I'm misunderstanding you, and I'm very sorry if I am, but this can also be done in one single hotkey. CXL ALLSYMB;Route=LIMIT;Share=Pos*0.5;Price=Bid-0.05;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=StopPrice;Share=Pos-share;TIF=DAY+;SELL=SEND This will allow you to take a 50% partial, and it will update the size of your stop without changing it's price. (Colors match what I said with what it references in the script)
  21. Justin
    Cover 25% - Leave stop where it is: CXL ALLSYMB;Route=LIMIT;Share=Pos*0.25;Price=Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=StopPrice;Share=Pos+share;TIF=DAY+;BUY=SEND Cover 25% - Set stop to breakeven: CXL ALLSYMB;Route=LIMIT;Share=Pos*0.25;Price=Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=AvgCost;Share=Pos+share;TIF=DAY+;BUY=SEND
  22. Justin
    Sounds like you nailed it then! Well done
  23. Justin
    Hey @Travis Weirich, in order to do it with Kyle's hotkey we would need to split the hotkey in two. One hotkey to record where you want the stop loss, and then one key to record where you want your entry. In order for the math to calculate how many shares you need based on your margin/risk profile, we need those two points. In the current hotkey we only need to click once, because the second point is automatically given to use by being the current price. I have some interest myself in this... I'll have a crack and get back to you!

    Hey drodz, in general it's called consolidation or a range (as in it's stuck in a range), and there are lots of ways to play it. If the volume is dropping off, then yes, maybe it's fine to get out. But if it is going to go for another leg up/down, keep an eye out on the volume, check the L2 to see if there are any good bids/asks ahead of you, and watch for it to start wedging towards whatever direction you are looking for. I would really recommend just eating up all the lessons in our education center - it'll give you a really good understanding in a lot of these areas: https://bearbulltraders.com/education-center/

    Hey Jad, There are some interesting changes coming in the next release, but I'm not sure this will be one of them. That being said, did you see peterB's comment? It does exactly what you need it to do all in one hotkey. Sells x amount of your position and resets your stop loss to the remaining amount of shares. Long: CXL ALLSYMB;Route=LIMIT;Share=Pos*0.5;Price=Bid-0.05;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=AvgCost;Share=Pos-share;TIF=DAY+;SELL=SEND Short: CXL ALLSYMB;Route=LIMIT;Share=Pos*0.5;Price=Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=AvgCost;Share=Pos+share;TIF=DAY+;BUY=SEND
