Guys, I recently wrote in my thread asking how to get ThinkOrSwim Realtime for Canadians, but given the TD Ameritrade registration issue, this is a very important question for anyone not living in the US. I've already highlighted my question about this problem in a separate thread, but after many replies, no one helped me. I continued to search and found guys from Europe who were able to solve this problem. Please moderators do not take this thread as an advertisement, I have nothing to do with them, just share some useful information to help. And I found them on the famous forum Reddit. If you are also affected by this problem, I'll leave here a link to the forum, read it. There they also discuss this problem and not only in Canada, but also in other countries.
ThinkOrSwim Realtime for Canadians
- Thread starter Smilingtrader
- Start date
I've been using ToS for quite a few years so I must have been grandfathered in at $5 per trade. I actually use ToS more as a realtime charting platform and not so much for trading. I really like the interface although there is a learning curve involved. I do most of my trading through IB due to the very low commissions.
Agree I use TOS for charting as well as find it really good on that point but trade through a prop as more feasible for me due to large volume and access to all ECNs and darkpool network
Guys, I don't need to trade through the TDA, IB is enough for me, but when I was studying my mentor used very cool scanners and I liked the charts on ThinkorSwim. Therefore, I decided to look for how you can get real quotes on ThinkorSwim. And I want to draw your attention to the link to the reddit topic in my first post in this thread.
