Tradingview position tool

[mikep]

Tradingview has an on screen tool that lets you drag and drop, reposition stop losses on the chart etc. which I think is awesome. Can anyone here create something like that? And why doesn't TOS have this great feature? Just can't see myself leaving TOS platform for Tradingview position tool however.

You can. You have to have "show orders" on under general settings

you can also do it using the active trader tab

Thanks jimi, I'm familiar with the 2 suggestions you made earlier. However, maybe you've never seen the Tradeview position tool. Definitely a step beyond what you're talking about. Thanks again.

I haven't seen TVs sorry. I'm guessing it's something like ninja traders system though. It seems more geared towards day trading and scalping where you need to move quickly so I haven't had reason to get into it as a swing and options trader.

Yeah, I have been trying to find a script for this exact tool for months, it's hard because there's no code you can get from trading view because it's a drawing tool and not an indicator. Hopefully, we can be blessed by the greatness of someone who can whip up a script for this tool.

Thinkscript does not provide us any means of writing studies that will be interactive with ToS charts, therefore such modifications are beyond the scope of the capabilities of the platform...
