Hi all, I am looking for a very basic hotkey script that I can use whereby DAS will automatically calculate the number of contracts to purchase based on a defined $ amount. For example, I wish to buy $1000 worth of an option with a current ask price of $1 (contract price $100) - on punching my hotkey DAS should go ahead and purchase 10 contracts ($1000 / ask*100). Is there a simple hotkey script to achieve this? Also, which window needs to be active when punching the hotkey - the options chain or the montage? I don't know if it affects the script at all, but for reference my broker is IBKR. Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks!

August 26. 2024 I pretend to show you what I consider the best way to trade if you have a small account. I will be using most of the time simple strategies like 1 and 2 min opening range breakouts and camarilla pivot points. First I traded 1 min ORB the I waited for the break of R3 and traded short. I traded 8 contracts on each direction.

Good afternoon, I am trying to figure out how to trigger a predefined order at a certain option price. Here is my example: Say I have 10 contracts of AMD 75 Calls, and I bought them at $2.00 per contract. I have this hotkey/script "CXL ALLSYMB;ROUTE=LIMIT;Price=Bid;Share=Pos*0.5;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send;Price=Ask-AvgCost-0.02;TriggerOrder=RT:STOP STOPTYPE:TRAILING StopPrice:Price TrailPrice=Round2 ACT:SELL QTY:POS TIF:DAY+" that I want to fire off automatically when the option price hits $2.50 I have not been able to figure out a way to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank you, Joseph
