Nevermind, the Youtube link broke. After doing what he suggested, I decided it was not worth the effort. We can do ratios by putting a dash in between the tickers. His system requires us to make changes to our chart settings which changes ALL our charts. I'm building something else for sector rotation right now.

Thanks D > reply later

SPD, thought you might like this for later. How to create ratio charts in TOS in the below video.

I want to set up my program to help me see the shift in sectors when the bear market is finally over. I think the rotation should give us a good heads up of what the money makers are doing. This guy does a thorough job explaining how to dig into our program and set them up.

FYI, after using Hurst Cycles for a few months, I have removed it from my intraday charts. I do think it is useful, but it takes a lot of visual energy to look at it as it becomes the dominant thing you see on a chart. I still have it on some of my daily charts. I'm not sure I'll keep it though because if we have support and resistance lines drawn, they pretty much do the job. I keep simplifying my charts and am finding them easier to trade so, while we can do a heck of a lot with TOS, less is better IMO.

Happy Holidays!

Welcome. If you decide to use the "Line" script, go in and change the default setting so the data line doesn't show then save that as the default. This script adds a line connecting all the candles, which is messy. Easy fix.

Hope all is well.

[spdpro]

D.> thanks I'll look at it later

Line Script Code: It is short and sweet. I found online and tested it. It draws a line where you want to sell your stock and then a line above and below based on your dollar range. I like it because I was manually drawing the lines before.

plot Data = close;
input MyLevel = 2000.00;
input Above = 2.25;
input Below = 3.75;

plot Level = MyLevel;

plot AboveLevel = MyLevel + Above;
plot BelowLevel = MyLevel - Below;

Does anyone know how to get tos to display the number of trades that a ticker has so far, on the Marketwatch page?

E.g., https://ih.advfn.com/stock-market/NASDAQ/mr-cooper-COOP/trades shows 9212 for the last trade, in the NUM column.

Hi Desertcynlite, I know you posted this post many years ago. I was wondering where can I find the TOS verison of the Drummond Geometry as the photo which you posted is this screen shot. Thanks for any help.

I am new to TOS and am just learning the ropes of ThinkScript. Is there a comprehensive technical users manual (on Thinkscript) available? One stop shopping so to speak, so that I can do character string searches? Their online learning resource tool is rather cumbersome....lots of clicking and navigating to find what I want. Thanks

just to add to that if you care to "flip" or invert
a chart use symbol (-) IE: for ES futures -/ES

[beachcomber1]

Thank you for that info.

[No-Quarter]

I found the answer.

Place the two ticker symbols into the symbol box separated with a minus sign.

xxxx-yyyy

[No-Quarter]

To chart the ratio of two stock's or two ETF's in Stockcharts, I enter the two ticker symbols separated by a colon.

xxxx:yyyy

How do I create the same ratio chart in Thinkorswim?

[jxyzobrien]

would like to try
some of the different platforms.

TOS good points
live education, best charts i have seen
love option charts , they are honest at TOS
they sent me a large refund check years later on a trade i was overcharged

bad points
higher commissions, placing trades is real bad. 4gb ram will not work.
i have 16gb ram.

[Dbandy1]

Why to struggle with the ThinkorSwim garbage software. In my opinion this software doesn't follow any software standard. confined with 1000s of silly bugs. Why will you risk your money trading with substandard software ? I can tell you if any computer student submit this software as a last semester project he/she will will get below average credit score. On top of that you will pay worst commission in your life. Just go for Sierra chart , ninjatrader far better software with more options and your will be sleep better at night with trading with these softwares.

Hi

[spdpro]

Brake light switch setting

The switch travel of the brake light switch is designed so that the brake light lights up before braking pressure builds up. The switches are self-adjusting and are mounted in a bayonett lock in the pedal block by turning them through 90°. By way of its self-adjustment function, the switch compensates for the tolerances in the pedals during initial assembly. However, if the switch is "overpressed" during work on the pedals or on the brake unit, the switch travel or pedal travel up to the switching point is lost.

The consequence: The brake lights are always on or flicker when travelling over bumps. In vehicles with cruise control, the cruise control can be deactivated as a result of vehicle vibrations under certain circumstances. Therefore, the switches must be readjusted after any work in which the brake pedal is moved out of its "normal" position (for example, work on the pedals or on the brake unit).



Checking brake light switch setting (No. 1)

The pedal must move a perceptible distance of approx. 5 to 10 mm before the brake light lights up.

At the same time, check (make sure) that the brake light lights up before the pedal meets perceptible resistance or before brake pressure builds up.

Adjusting switch if pedal travel is too small

There are two possibilities to adjust the switch if the pedal travel to the switching point is too small.

1st possibility:

- Press the brake pedal and pull out the switch plunger.

- Release the pedal. Check adjustment

2nd possibility:

- Release switch by turning it 90° and pull it out of the installation opening.

- Pull operating plunger out of the switch as far as it will go.

- Reinstall the switch.

When installing the switch for the first time, it is essential to press it vertically against the bearing surface. It will otherwise not be possible to lock the switch (90° turn), even if great force is exerted.

Note: A play-free fit of the switch is no longer ensured after it has been installed and removed several times. The switch must be replaced by a new switch as soon as it perceptibly "wobbles" in its receiver.

Adjusting switch if pedal travel is too large

Press pedal and press plunger into the switch by one notch (audible click).

The pedal travel to the switching point then decreases by approx. 3... 4 mm.

Then check setting again.

Chart Background color questions?
I have seen charts and code that paints a charts background color
one color when one mov. avg. is higher than another avg. etc.

But what I was wondering is:
Can you control where on the charts background it is painted?

Like can you paint like the lower 20% of the chart background or the upper 20% or the middle of the chart or what you want to paint the background?

If you can, how do you do that with a sample code?

Maybe like paint the lower 20% of the charts background blue when Mov. avg. X is higher than Mov. avg. Y or what ever.

Any ideas about this would be helpful.

Thanks,
