Introduction to thinkorswim® Web

[@walkdontrun6578]

Very nice! Thank You........ Quick crisp and concise!

[@sanguinj]

Nice. I want to see more of mastering the new web TOS . Very refreshing voice, great pace, quick and concise

[@AdrianChairez0377]

WOW!!! I like the swapping back and forth from LIVE to paper trading on the flip of a switch. I will give it a try. thank you for showing us the good stuff, keep it coming

[@cicada3312]

Yeah that's clutch

[@danthomsen9202]

Edit Selected is not an option to click on at the 5:40 mark, so how do you edit selected now?

[@jeffreycaldwell5874]

Great step by step video and a pretty lady giving the presentation

[@johnhenderson7081]

I have decided to go with the TOS web. It is all I need and believe in making things simple. Just wondering in there will be more background changes along with other features in the future?

[@CharlesSchwab]

We are constantly working on improving our platforms, but don't have plans for background modifications at this time. Thank you for the question. ^BC

[@sanguinj]

What happened that the setting option was eliminated, the one to change the background color?

[@jamesdunn1641]

I liked the tutorials but if you could use either a larger cursor or a different colored cursor it would be easier to follow. I find myself constantly trying to catch up with the moderator and sometimes have to look at the video again to follow what they are doing.

[@xxbrooklynkingshaunxx4470]

So is there no way to have multiple charts on the screen at once on the web version?

[@thejmack24]

Think you, love the training.

[@jasonfitzgerald9470]

What are the main differences between the web version and the installed full version?

[@CharlesSchwab]

Here's a great video from Schwab Coaching (schwab.xom/coaching) to help explain the differences: kzbin.infof96bflFfdwc?feature=share ^BW

[@anaguzman3339]

There is no settings icon on what i am looking at today compared to what you are showing.

[@anitajerkin]

It's now under your Profile tab.

[@anaguzman3339]

@@anitajerkin thank you. Will take a look tomorrow am.

how do you sync all charts on a chart grid? I view multiple charts for the same symbol with different timeframes and indicators and it would be nice if they were all in sync (ie: click a symbol in a watchlist and all charts change to that symbol). Right now I have to manually enter the symbol on each chart. Thanks

[@CharlesSchwab]

This is an easy fix Ragnar. Now that you have created the grid, just go the the right of each ticker symbol field and choose a link color. The link right now is a neutral color, but choose red or yellow or whatever color off that link. Make sure all of the grids use the same color. Then when you put in a new ticker, it will synch up to the other charts as you desire. ^CH

This NEW Thinkorswim Web looks like an abbreviated version of the original FULL TOS version. In the effort to make TOS more user friendly,, it looks like it sacrifices the depth of data, and analytics of the original full platform. Schwab would be making a mistake to abandon the original platform which has a more "professional" approach. As a former TD Ameritrade client, I was told that TOS would continue to be fully supported. Please do not force this "quick, easy, simplified" version upon me. Please live up to the original Schwab commitment to maintain and support the original TOS platform.

[@CharlesSchwab]

Schwab is committed to keeping thinkorswim desktop software. It is the most robust version. thinkorswim web is a simplified version and continues to receive enhancements as the platform develops. ^CH

[@johncurtis920]

I agree. There's nothing wrong with this web version of TOS but I suggest to any Schwab folks here that regarding the desktop you stick to the logic of "if it ain't broke don't go fixin' it." It's a crown jewel you've got from the TDA acquisition. Don't fix it. Just some thoughts.

[@marcoefffe]

Depth of the market is a very important issue, specially for people trading optons. I don't find it in this new version, SSE was very convenient in terms of this issue and layout.

[@nailedbyneva]

Did something change because I keep getting like a regular thinkorswim. The layout is completely different as if it’s a mobile version. When I googled thinkorswim web it takes me right back to the same page.

[@PappaLeans]

How does that tell you the float?

[@CharlesSchwab]

Here's a great webcast from Schwab Coaching that might help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/roTXiH-EYtt-rpYsi=gsesBSJ6_qyXOQ7i ^BW

[@meTimetraveler]

at the moment there is no selecting FIFO or LIFO, if you had it selected in schwab your ok.

[@dollarjilt1]

great job!

[@xombiii]

Is there a video on 1) How to create a stop loss at a stock price, not option price (SPY at 500, not 2.65 or whatever). 2) How do you create an order for options, and a stop loss at 20%? on the web?

[@CharlesSchwab]

Cameron May teaching a class weekly called Getting Started with thinkorswim. In this video he shows how to many option trades from simple to complex. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXnVpXiFrJtro8U ^CH

Thank You!!!

[@Wendy-ip9nz]

why would you not teach in the white screen mode?

[@CharlesSchwab]

Some like the black background better and some like the white. Its just a personal preference. ^CH

[@patrickthestarfishflynn]

COULD YOU GUYS MOVE OR LOSE THE CHARLES SWAB AD ITS RIGHT IN THE WAY OF THE WATCH LIST AND BUYING QUANTITY BUTTON

[@CharlesSchwab]

When pulling up this video, the Charles Schwab logo shows in the bottom right hand corner of the screen only. You may want to try resizing your screen, possibly. ^MF

[@cicada3312]

I loooove the Web app more than desktop, desktop is waay to confusing for me.

[@shipstern100]

Well done

[@BertramCC]

Schwab likes to make things complicate. We need original simple and effective thinkorswim back.

[@iTek14]

@@CharlesSchwab I really like the simplicity of Thinkorswim Web, but I would like to know if the web version has level 2?

[@tjd7964]

Got a Schwab ad in front of video so I cant see. How annoying.

[@tylascraig9306]

Outside of performing the class in white instead of dark, it was good.

[@johndegroot3124]

This thinkorswim video is not useful. 1. Start with What is it? (and not just the sale pitch, but put up a description that is useful to someone that does not already know what it is) 2. then explain Why should I care? (again, avoid all the salepitch jargon) 3. Only after you have explained What and Why will it be appropriate to explain how to change the colors of the online display or other 'How to use' tips. If I don't know the What and the Why, I will not listen to the How because I don't care about it.
