Is there a high low ticker for Interactive Brokers?

  1. Hi everyone,

    I recently tried to ask this question on Reddit and someone suggested I look for a forum for Interactive Brokers, I couldn't find one and stumbled upon this Forum. I just started an account with Interactive Brokers and the TWS seems like it was made for Windows 95. But that being said, I'm wondering if the basic system is able to add a High low ticker that looks like the one below:

    and how do I go about setting it up? all the tutorials online look like they were from older versions which looks very different from the interface now.

    Go to IB's webinars and distinguish between TWS and the Mosaic interface. Don't try to short-cut this.

    FWIW, I don't know of a serious trader who uses Mosaic.

    TWS has as many different set-ups as can be thought up. A thoroughly tweaked TWS takes me a good 2 weeks to finish -- and I don't know of two TWS set-ups that look the same: they are as different as the different trading assets/traders/time-frames combinations used around the world.

    Oh, and to be clear: what you're describing are scan pages/tabs in TWS, as noted in posts above. There are a great number of these.

    And does TWS look like a Windows 95 spreadsheet? Oh fergawdsakes, Get Over It. :banghead: We will ALL agree on that. SO WHAT. Be different: be a professional, and go make money.

  4. I am currently using TWS, but most of the instructional videos seem to be for mosaic. Do you know of any resource on the new TWS system?

    I don't. :( Been too long since I've even reviewed one. (Which means I'm way overdue.:confused:) But to complicate matters, IB took down whole *pages* of past webinars over the past 2-3 years, and/or moved them around and shook them up. DON'T assume that different links go to the same resources -- hit every single suggested webinar/resource link, and keep track of your "history" so that if you DO find the motherlode, you can find it *again* quickly, without having an exhausting search first. If these resources remain up on IB's website, there may be only one live url to find it. POST ANY NEWS HERE, cuz, like, "crowd-source." :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
