im new to Django and im playing a bit around. So i want to create a Model Field that is dynamicly showing the total price generated from the Amount and Item Price given by the User. Is there a way to do this easy? I would love to find out how that works.

I don't think you need a model field for that. You can create a method to do that for you. In your models.py, you can write a function like this inside the class of your model.
def total_price(self):
return self.price * self.quantity
In your HTML templates, you can get the total price by doing something like:
<p>Price ${{item.total_price}}</p>
