Right click and color link ahhhh. Thank you
Is anyone experiencing slippage?
This isn’t think or swim web right? Because the interface looks different
Is there a 2026 update to this. It looks like the entire interface has changed since this
This is incredibly helpful thank you
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but shouldn't the buttons be Buy the Bid and Sell the Ask? If you buy at the ask and sell at the bid, you're buying the max possible on entry and accepting the absolute lowest on exit.
Can you set a stop loss and take profit on the candle chart doing this?
As a UI designer I find ThinkOrSwim to be one, if not 'the', dumbest design ive ever seen. It is truly a disaster and embarrassment. It could be so much easier to use it leaves me speechless. Its garbage.
Hello, any idea when I right click on one of the Buy buttons in the option chain on the right bottom section and send it to Red link, why do I get an error that the instrument for red link has no options?
GREAT JOB. APPRECIATED. I'M 53, SO DEFINITELY WOULDN'T FIGURE ALL THAT OUT! 😂😎
Desi- this is exactly what I was looking for. Excellent video!! Really enjoy your levels. Hope your enjoying yourself in Italy!
Great video, thanks
Here is an easier way, set up hot key then just Shift point and click on the bid or ask. Set up your default orders in the applications settings. have a detached window for your positions then you can either buy or sell by just shift clicking the bid or ask.
You can't do that with 50-100 contracts though
Missing PnL column in the DOM
Hi, I noticed you have a position tab open below the active trader? How did you do that? Just detach the position tab out of the monitor section and move it to the active trader?
Wow! Excellent video. Thank you!
LOVE IT
I know this is an old video, but I just came across it and I was trying to figure out this very thing with the options contracts. TOS is an incredibly powerful tool, but sometimes I feel like you almost needed a degree to figure it out.
thanks for this video, how do you add position on your active trader chart on the top right? so you can see the PNL. Thanks
What's the nuclear option when you never got filled and price is quickly moving against you? Click on DOM?
This was so helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for this video I took off market orders & setup my active trader the same as yours, its gonna feel so much better to be able to trade options like futures with easy entry plus exits 🅿🌙💲🈂🚀
Can you go over how to setup a stop/loss and a take profit automatically? Also a price entry target to automatically enter at target
You made this SO SIMPLE. Thank you.
Hi Vincent i'm trying to detach the screen as you are recommending but it is not working
Hey Vincent, thank you for uploading this great video, I just have a quick question, you said to buy on the Ask and sell on the Bid, the big problem is that every time I do it, my entries are not being filled, unless I send them @market price, can you please clarify???
Thank – all in on scalping – Great video – Do you have anymore on the subject?
what indicators you use?
Excellent video! Very informative and helpful. Thanks
great video, helped me get my workspace set up properly. thanks.
W video bro. the active trader is saving me time!
imagine hitting "Sell Bid" when the stock is tanking, and you never get out of the trade…
This is one of the best video's I've found on ThinkorSwim
Hey Vincent
So to buy put do i have to use buy the ask too?
Thank you for your help
great explanation!
Great video! I'm new to this and have been flattening out of positions. Appreciate the easy to follow explanation.
Is your set up still the same in 2025?
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for.
