I remember when ToS was solid and their customer service was
exemplary - that was before they were bought by TDA. Guess I'll
fund that TS account once Matt gives us the go ahead for his
indicators.
It's $99/mo for the platform. What I'm going to do when Matt
says everything is ready is pay the $99, download the platform,
trade with the indicators for a month using my TDA brokerage
account, evaluate how I did, then decide if I want to open a
brokerage account with TS, or continue paying the $99/mo to just
use the platform. Open a brokerage account with a minimum deposit
of $2K and the platform is free:

some minimum trading requirement as well not sure about that
Matt, if the Earning Calendar link updates automatically, would
it be possible to also add it to the Newsletters Drop Down below
Trade Ideas? That way we wouldn't have to open a Newsletter to
access it. Thanks
Thanks for the explanation. I don't have Stockcharts so I just
redraw your lines and set alarms on ToS. Seems to work okay for me.
I'm for anything that makes your jobs easier.
erikvik, PRTS is moving about 63 cents a day. The range of
that 1 minute candle was 70 cents, more than it normally moves in a
day. Your spread was 29% of what it normally moves in a day,
which should have been plenty. In addition the next 1 min candle
had a low of 9.16, so price came back in your range. Seems to me
you should have been filled. Sucks that you weren't. I use ToS.
I've gotten some REALLY bad fills when I've just done buy stop
orders, so I've switched to buy stop-limit orders. I vary the
stop-limit spread based on the ATR of the stock. For example, for a
stock that moves $1 a day, a 5-10 cent stop to limit spread should
get you filled, at least it usually does with ToS. A stock
that moves $10 a day may need a larger spread since it can
generally move quicker in a short timeframe.
vinylchild, you can trade ES Futures on TD (ThinkorSwim)-
symbols: /ES, /MES (micro ES). You have to apply for a
Futures Account to trade them but you can still chart them without
the Futures Acct
