    there is a blank space around the bottom of the TWS
    trading platform (Below the scroll bar).

    How to remove it?
    It is redundant and is occupying precious space.

    File -> Unlock Layout (Edit Mode) allows you to adjust your screen layout. You can add and resize all the different windows. Lock the layout when you're done.

    Your layout is different from min; I have no whitespace. At the bottom left I have news; bottom right, activity.

    It works, but can be a little flaky.

  3. Below the scroll bar, I only see the TWS window border. Is this border you want to remove?

    I think I might have clicked the LOCK LAYOUT and messed up my platform.

    anayway, kmiklas managed to help me fix the problem.

    Thanks.

    Yup. If it makes you feel any better I've done that at least a half-dozen times.

    You can "buy" and "sell" stuff with TWS. You know that, right?
