Bless you sir. Excellent video! Very in depth. I appreciate it.

It'll be nice to get more of the ToS functions under my belt, especially with regards to option analysis. Most of it I'm already decent at, mostly recently.

[@OptionAlpha]

Yep indeed we'll be covering a ton of stuff for options.

Do you have to fund an account on Think or Swim in order to paper trade on their platform ?

[@OptionAlpha]

I believe so yes - but you can do paper trading with them also.

[@paresh1965]

Good summary. How can I download the platform ?

[@OptionAlpha]

Right on their website.

[@doctornaveed]

Good stuff. Thank you.

[@sekt]

How do I know what video follows this one?

[@OptionAlpha]

Just check the upload dates. Since we are just adding these to youtube as we build out the course we have not yet added them to the website just yet but will soon so it'll be in order there.

[@sekt]

OK thanks! I enjoyed this one, in the meantime I am doing the course on your website, very interesting so far!

Thinkorswim really sucks now. I have been with them for years and lost money on trades when TOS lags and freezes. They always have an excuse too, but the problem stays. That free trading app called Robinhood should end up getting TOS customers for swing trading since most info is free on the web, and many folks would rather trade for free that try and trade a lagging platform. Folks say you get bad fills on Robinhood but a slow platform also creates bad fill. No difference.

[@OptionAlpha]

True it's hard to keep it lean and fast when they are growing but still one of the best around.
