  1. I want to change over from using fixed risk amount (Kyle's Hotkeys for Das Trader) to using % of my account. I have been trying to figure out how to write the script to do this, but i can't and i'm tired of trying. I'm willing to pay someone for a script: risking 1% of my account with stop and profit of 1:3
  2. I want to switch over to using 1% of my account instead of using fixed risk. I was going thru the “bbt.dastraderpro_hotkey_config-V2” and I tried them but I’m confused how it suppose to work b/c, I don’t know if my account is margin x4, if so how do I calculate 1% of my balance. So when I took a trade in sim, I still couldn’t figure out if I just used 1% of my account. Also I didn’t get the auto SL/TP flags. I thought maybe someone has been in the same situation and switch from fixed risk to % risk. Any help is appreciated!
  3. Hi Russ, can i bother you again on writing another script?  If not i understand, but if so.  Can a script be created for 3 to 1 but sell/buy (create script for both ways) 33% at 1R and sell/buy remainder at 3R?

      heya, sorry for the late reply,  I haven't checked in for a while.

      Do you still want me to have a go at that script?

      One of the problems with exit scripts is that with percentages, they often don't add up to the proper shares of the position.  There are ways around it depending on what exactly you want it to do.

      You have helped me in the past, so I have another question for you.  I want to switch over to using 1% of my account instead of using fixed risk.  I was going thru the “bbt.dastraderpro_hotkey_config-V2”  and I tried them but I’m confused how it suppose to work b/c, I don’t know if my account is margin x4, if so how do I calculate 1% of my balance.  So when I took a trade in sim, I still couldn’t figure out if I just used 1% of my account.  Also I didn’t get the auto SL/TP flags.  I thought maybe you used %risk and could lead me in the right direction.  If you can help I appreciate if not I still appreciate what you done before. 

  4. OK, it worked. both orders don't show up and same time, once one hit the other showup. i understand now. thx. Can you please give me your Paypal email so i can buy you a coffee or something?
  5. i must be doing something wrong. i'm trying the short script, so i double click to place stop then click short button, then i need to double click outside of the entry order. should i see two orders on my Orders tab?
  6. thx a million. I really appreciate you working on this for me.
  7. yes, i'm getting filled. I've been using this script for over a year. I don't know much about how to figure the scripts so it's been working and i just kept using.

  10. Can someone help me create a script, so I can get in a trade and walk away. So what I use now is a 3 to 1 script. But I have to wait for price to get to SL or 1R before I can walk away. I want to be able to enter my 3to1 and once stock gets to 1R it auto moves to B/E. Is this possible, a year ago I was told it was not but maybe someone has figured it out.
  11. Hey, Russ. I like to use the analogy get in a trade and walk away. The question I have for you, do you know if you can get a script to move to b/e after getting to first target. Similar to the first question, Patrick asked. But your response, I think you was saying you have to move your stop manually and not auto. That's what I have to do now, I want to be able to get in a trade, auto move stop to b/e at 1R then get out at 3R or b/e. Thx in advance.
  12. i can't get it to work, i'm not seeing the "A" you are talking about
