Can thinkScript be used to mimic Schwab StreetSmart Edge's "walk limit order" feature?

I recently switched from Schwab to TD Ameritrade / thinkorswim.

I always used Schwab StreetSmart Edge's "walk limit order" feature described on schwab.com/video/streetsmart-walk-limit-orders to automatically walk the limit order price on option trades up or down using set price and time increments to try to get better fill prices and it worked very well.

As far as I can tell, TD Ameritrade and thinkorswim don't support walk limit orders but can thinkScript be used to mimic that feature?

I searched useThinkScript but I didn't see any threads about it.

No, custom Thinkscript isn't available for conditional option orders.
