I received an email that supposedly you can officially trade on TOS but I just looked at it at it doesn't look like they changed anything the login screens is still messed up and it shows the account number but you cant select it so it's still useless at this point and supposedly they will phase...

I finally fixed it It turned out it was something in the task scheduler that kept TOS from going past the install updates I disabled 12 out of 13 items that I did not know what they are for than once I reinstalling TOS that also fixed the problem with the option chains Now it's down to about 4...

Running slow overall is one thing but taking 1 minute for the options chain to load is something else At least you have ways to speed it up by adjusting the memory settings ,reducing the amount of simulated trades or reset the workspace but so far there is no solution for the slow option chain...

Not having any luck with reinstalling TOS it still has the same problem but I found a workaround for now I have windows 10 on a separate drive and partition and I installed TOS on that and it works there so I just made a shortcut to that drive and it's working so I will use it that way until I...

Yes you are correct about the functionality The big surprise for me was the sign in screen where I could not switch back to TOS without adjusting the display so that would be the first ting that should be fixed

Thanks but that is not the problem as it only happens after I load TOS and log in after waiting for a minute the second time I use it it works fine I was used the live session while I was logged in and they sent me some adjustments to install in the .vmoptions file and that included some of the...

I asked them about this and they said "At this time we are still operating separately." also they gave a phone number to the transition specialist to fix the login screen Not sure if they will be as helpful as the TD support So it will take a while before Schwab traders can use the TOS platform

I was stumbled on a setting where you can load Schwab onto the TOS platform I guess this was done after the completion of the merger Before you log in if you use the small wheel at the bottom left you now have a dropdown from which you can select either TOS or Schwab than you can log in using...

I asked TD but they really did not have an answer They suggested to save the workspace and than reset to factory default but that did not make any difference It still takes about 1 minute for SPX option chain to load up Just now I got another reply and said I have to call technical support

I did not see anything specific to calendars but there is a note that would exclude calendars from that written margin requirement for complex options spreads 2 All component option legs must have the same expiration date. So based on that the calendar would be considered a naked leg so you...

Did anyone notice TOS is running slow or is it just on my pc When I first load TOS it takes about 10-20 seconds for the data to load on the trade tab It just says waiting for data and this is after trading hours so it's not like it's got a lot of changing data to load The analyze tab shows...

I am just going by some of the discussion on this schwabTDA transition subject here on Aeromir and supposedly they are implementing it on the cash indexes with the exception of the monthly or maybe they delayed it for some reason On TD is not implemented yet but eventually they are planing to...

Is the 23 oct legs part of this trade? I suspect not since the 4175 still has value so you could not have closed it for .00 The 20 oct bf is a drag on the trade and perhaps it should be adjusted some more as only 5 out of the 10 were closed This trade may not be doable if and when Schwab...

I heard on the Trading group for Sep 27 that you made a new version and you said that there are no restrictions and anyone should have access but it looks like only gold members have access to the trade log

According to the CNN fear and greed index it shows it as 28 in the fear section Of course it's not the same calculation but still it's not bullish A week ago it was at 34 so a little higher but still in the fear section The one at Aeromir was at 23 when I noticed it on Thursday in the bullish...

Well that's not what happens in reality Most of the time when VIX is up is because the market is going down so most traders are rushing to get out that is why it is called the fear index when the market goes up the VIX usually goes down since there is no fear of going up On rare occasions when...

Not sure I understand what you are saying If volatility spiked I would expect a more bearish sentiment rather than a bullish one I guess it's more like less bullish then previous but still in the green

Just wondering how the market sentiment is calculated on this website It shows it as bullish while the VIX has spiked up and SPX went down about 200 points in about a week

Just wanted to point out that you did not go back far enough to see the high in the VIX during covid I am guessing you were looking at a 3 year daily chart The VIX high was around 85 in March of 2020 that 30 range was after it came down form the highs

I don't have an answer just curious why you need a pop up box when you can see the values change in the cell ? Is that going to be use on the price ? I imagine on SPX you would have a pop up box every second if not more often and would be distracting Wouldn't an alert be better ?
