Plan
Plan tomorrow tonight.
Position sizing per pattern, hot keys ready, per-broker margin pre-calculated. Open the workstation tomorrow with everything already mapped.
Inside Plan
The hour before the open is where the day is won.
Hot keys, per-broker margin, position sizes, and pattern allocation — all set up the night before. No flipping between calculators mid-trade. No mental math when seconds matter.
Next-Day Position Planner
Tomorrow's positions, sized and saved before the bell. Each watchlist ticker gets a planned share count, entry zone, stop, and pattern tag. Open the workstation in the morning and start trading, not configuring.
Hot keys ready
DAS Trader hot-key mappings built in: works with whichever broker you connect through DAS. Your planned size, broker, and pattern are pre-loaded; the hot key just fires the order. No mid-trade configuration. No fat-finger risk on size.
The mid-trade is the worst time to do math.
Per-broker margin pre-calc
FINRA Rule 4210 margin requirements computed per broker for every planned position. Knows your house rules — sub-$5 shorts, long percentages, locate fees — and shows you what's safe before the open.
Pattern-level position sizing
Each pattern has its own sizing rules: fixed share count, percent of buying power, R-based sizing, or kelly-tuned. The planner respects them so you never accidentally oversize one system at the expense of another.
