DAS Trader Pro feature highlight 4

[Henry Gross]

Hi Peter, great stuff. Is there a way to include the symbol in the name of the price alert? I'd like the system to speak the symbol as I trade multiple stocks at the same time. TIA Hank

hi Henry, sure there is a way. As described in this article https://traderpeter.substack.com/p/das-trader-pro-advanced-hotkeys-part-ec1

you just use it like this

$MYALERT.name="Price Reached "+SYMB;

or

$MYALERT.name="Price Reached "+$MYSYMB;

depending if you have the montage in focus when you press the hotkey.

Peter, I cannot get any alerts to work. Are there things I need to add before following this article? It doesn't seem to detect what price I'm clicking on

[Peter Benci]

the price you need to double click - you will see the price box change in your montage

[Peter Benci]

have you enabled double-click to trade?

[Henry Gross]

Yes, it was already enabled

[Peter Benci]

have you enabled advanced hotkeys syntax?

[Henry Gross]

Already enabled
