Hey guys, I am running the thinkorswim platform and am fairly new with it. I was wondering if any of you guys have a favorite strategy that you use from the studies option they have built into the platform

also didnt know if this was the right place to post the question, but thanks anyways!

On what time frame are you trading?

If you are day trading there is a pretty good code floating around for opening range break outs that uses the 5EMA and the 10EMA. PM me and ill send it to you.

Just using the 20EMA is great for a momentum indicator.

Check out the PPS indicator for swing trades...it's alright definitely not some holy grail.

TOS uses a lot of John Carter's studies, personally I do not find them too effective in equities. They might be better in futures.

There are a lot of custom indicators just search in google.
