This option works on DAS if you create the script for it...You cannot click trade the chart on das with futures as it has two decimals...you also need to use kyle hotkeys to risk % or fixed $ amount.

Of course ib has nothing to do with this. IB is just the broker...

This option is not very flexible with das btw, you cannot create one bracket order with three profit targets, one stop loss and base it on R multiples... I have tried this. You can do a range order, you can buy based on BP but you cannot do complex orders with trailing stops and all of that.
