Hello Owltrader, I don't know if by Demo you mean like a trial version of DAS or if you just mean the paper money account. I have the regular plan (non-trial) plan and the following script works on my paper (sim) account. However, it doesn't set the target limit for your 2:1 ratio, but it does the entry and sets the physical Stop Loss for you. Since what you're trying to do is slightly different than me, I suspect the 'stop order' montage style might not work on the type of range order that you are trying to set, perhaps it would work on the 'OCO' or some other style on the montage. Hope this helps. This is the exact script I'm using and it works for me if I'm on the 'Stop Order' Style on the montage: StopPrice=Price-0;DefShare=BP*0.925;Price=Ask-Price+0.00;SShare=100/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;ROUTE=SMRTL;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+;

Hello, I had a similar question earlier this week as I am also new to DAS. My question was specifically on his fixed risk hotkeys. I found a BBT YouTube video that has the script on the description ready for copying and pasting. It also helped me figure out other montage mistakes I was making. If it helps I will leave the forum link below, the video link is in the last comment. Hope this helps!

Fixed Risk Hotkey not setting Stop Loss
LucioV replied to LucioV's topic in Day Trading Hardware, Software and Tools
Thank you guys for responding! I finally figured out what my mistake was, I wasn't changing the 'style' on the montage to "Stop Order". For future reference if it may help anyone, this is the BBT video that helped me clear that up: -
Fixed Risk Hotkey not setting Stop Loss
LucioV replied to LucioV's topic in Day Trading Hardware, Software and Tools
thank you, Youre right I did make that mistake of accidentally copying my short script. This is my current Buy Script and I still dont get the Stop Loss: StopPrice=Price-0.01;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Ask-Price+0.01;SShare=25/Price;Share=DefShare-SShare;DefShare=DefShare+SShare;SShare=Share;Sshare=DefShare-SShare;Share=0.5*SShare;TogSShare;Route=SMRTL;Price=Ask+0.05;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send;DefShare=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOPSTOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice-0.1 ACT:SELL STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:PosTIF:DAY+; Which I cant seem to find any differences with yours so it makes me believe I might be doing something else wrong, or maybe I have a minor error in my script -
Hello everyone, I recently switched to DAS, and seem to be struggling setting the fixed risk Hotkeys/Buttons that Thor mentions in one of his webinars. I typed the following script to "Buy $25" (buy shares according to a $25 risk), but I realized it only enters the entry order but no stop loss. Did I do something wrong? Or is it only supposed to enter the position but not set an actual stop loss? And is there a place/resource where I can copy and paste the exact scripts/files? Here is the script: StopPrice=Price-0.01;DefShare=BP*0.97;Price=Price-Bid+0.01;SShare=25/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=400;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:MARKET PX:StopPrice+0.05 ACT:BUY STOPPRICE:StopPrice QTY:Pos TIF:DAY+ I also noticed some minor discrepancies amongst the scripts in the "Equalized Risk Per Trade Hotkey" video and the "How To Set Up and Use Fixed Risk Hotkeys -Thor" video.
