Does anyone use the mobile app for think or swim? If anyone thinks that app is user friendly and easy to trade with should have their head examined.
I use TOS desktop and mobile, and also ibkr tws and mobile. My rating from 1 to 10: TOS desktop = 9 (beautiful! It just seem to miss a couple of things IB offers, like 23hrs index options for me at least, global access etc) TWS = 7 TOS mobile app = 7 Ibkr mobile app = 8.5 Both apps are decent, ibkr app offers a lot more than tos app. Tos desktop is so good that the app doesn't even compare. But it's user friendly enough to get by. I trade short term 2-4 legged option spreads, the odd index future, future options and some shares in longer term.
No, I think most on this forum are more advanced than to be practicing with a simulator. Maybe try finding a begginer trading forum off google for help?
