Schwab pull the plug on my StreetSmart Edge ... Now ThinkorSwim or nothing

Post by swong »

Just a head's up for those who are on StreetSmart Edge. Be advised Schwab severed my ability for use on StreetSmart Edge and I have the "one" choice and that is ThinkorSwim or nothing. Been hoping they would grandfather the bunch of oldtimers on SSE but it doesn't appear to be. It's apparent I must learn this new trading platform (TOS) and my comfort level is non-existent. Does anyone know if there exists any hardcopy publications of TOS and if so where did you purchase said publication(2). Thanks much!

I don’t know of printed documentation but be aware that the mobile ToS and the desktop/Java ToS are vastly different.

I was comfortable doing complex trades in Java but always felt weird doing anything beyond simple buy/sell on mobile.

TDAmeritrade support was always good to me - try calling and asking what they have/know about.
