Hot Key script help, please

[KennyG 1]

I'm apparently too dense at learning the DAS hot key script syntax to get a single script to do what I want. Please help! Specs follow below (on an example). Note: I do NOT want to dynamically calculate the number of shares to long/short based on risk.

• Enter long/short for a specific number of shares (long 100 shares)
• Trigger a range order that will
  • Fix my risk based on set price movement against me (e.g., set stop $0.25 below my entry price for R of $25)
  • Exit at 2R profit (e.g., sell when price moves up $0.50 for profit of $50)

Thanks in advance!

why dont you take the existing hotkeys and use those? cant you click on 25 cents stop and hit the hotkey so it buys you 100 shares with $25 risk?

it would make your life so much easier because you could use whatever stop you decide and not only 25 cents and also it will be easily to adapt in the future for higher risk

Because even that takes too long for what I want to do: A snap entry of fixed share quantity triggering a defined stop range order. Anyhow, I found some syntax I can edit to my needs in https://dastrader.com/docs/how-do-i-use-hotkeys/
