YES!!!!

Nice man! Great minds something something. I am under the impression it would be perfectly fine to trade an entire account with strict stop loss/risk management control? Also, have a gander here if you haven't already, Kyle has set up DAS to do all of this for us automagically. (Although we won't get cool readouts like our programs do)

Maybe you will tell me this is all easily done with buttons..but I haven't looked into the button calculations yet. It takes a share price and based on your account size will show you the max shares you can afford as well as display the money you'd lose/gain for each .05 interval up to 50 cents. account_size = 30000 from decimal import Decimal print("Welcome Tom, your account size is set to " + str(account_size)) share_price = input("\r\nPlease enter share price... ") shares = account_size//Decimal(share_price) print("**************************************") print("\r\nYou can afford " + str(shares) + " shares.") print("**************************************\r") stoploss = Decimal('0.05') while(stoploss <= .5): risk = 0 risk = int(shares)*stoploss print("stop loss of " + str(stoploss) + " risks " + str(risk)) stoploss+= Decimal('0.05')

Das offers a 14 day free trial you could take advantage of. edit: There are ways to get around the 14 days if you really have to...Use your imagination or message me directly.

Where actually is the custom file? I am just using a 14 day free trial from DAS and would like access to this file to follow along with the educational videos.

Hi Everyone, my name is Tom, I am 34 and from Pennsylvania. I have a bachelor's degree in Information Science and Technology. I am leaving my job as a network engineer because I am just absolutely sick of it. A career change is in order and I want to pursue a career in day/swing trading. I want a lifestyle that allows me to be my own boss and be independent of the corporate world. I have some trading experience researching and investing(read:luck) in small cap biotechnology stocks. The lessons I learned from small cap biotechnology trading were heavy and with that heavy losses. However, I was able to save some money doing this to be able to comfortably take a year off from work and try my hand at day trading. I am here to learn as much as I possibly can, and hopefully contribute back to the success of our group while making enough money to survive along the way. I can't wait to start trading with everyone and I wish you all the best!
