After a certain % gain can you modify the trailing stop to be shorter? A much shorter trail stop can determine either up or exit strategy. Locking in profits but not limiting potential.
TD doesn't exist anymore. I wonder how to connect to Charles Schwab API now? It appears Charles Schwab is not showing on the confutation options . I wonder if you know how to link ThinkorSwim to Charles Schawab, thank you
Your videos are great and very informative and I appreciate the work you are doing to teach us. One small thing ... As a fellow dev, the fact that the sound of the typing and clicks are not synced with the video bothers me to no end :D . Keep up the good work my dude
Thank you so much....I think. I have been through a hundred tutorials and none of them explain what all the little buttons and clicky things are or what they mean. Until a couple of years ago I used a typewriter and a dial up phone, so trying to understand what all those things mean on the platform is like trying to Find Waldo. Could you make a video on how to place a trade using paper money so we can practice before losing real money?
Hi Jacob great video. Quick question, how are you able to run your backtest with Apple stock? What connection do you use and how can I get that to work ?
Hi Jacob, great video, very helpful stuff! Do you know if it is possible to use TD Ameritrade API to automate a strategy that scans the market every few minutes for a 5 minute bar strategy and then have the software automatically buy stocks that meet that criteria?
I day trade on TD TOS and use semi-automated trading by setting up buy and sell orders with OCO within the price ranges I expect the stock to trade. It works pretty well. The one thing I can't get it to do (or at least I don't know how) is to place the same trade automatically again after it fills and closes. Is this something you know how to do, or can you help with a way to make that work with your system here?
there is no way to make TOS place the same trade again automatically. if that were possible you would be entering the realm of fully automated trading which TOS does not support
I need your help I purchase the code but it gave me buy and sell signal but it give me buy signal at the opening of candle how can I write a code to make sure it give me buy or sell after closing of candles
having a problem creating a Conditional BUY Order crossing below PG High or above PG LOW on the MONKEY BARS also using stochastic . using multipal time frames for DAY and HOUR . any HELP ?
You can’t compare prior close to current close, unless you waited for the market to close because that information will be in the future, it didn’t happen yet. That strategy should be previous close, current open and that’s what a gap up or down is
Hello Jacob; thank you for this great video. I have an instant scanner/alert setup in TOS. is it possible to auto-import this list into the bot for trading?
Novice here. Maybe you can try in a different time frame -> frequency. Maybe this will allow you to use that trail stop at 1%. Would using condition like sell/buy only if the profit is positive work better or would that cause you to lose more money?
Great work! So I have a great strategy that a friend programmed for me, but I need a bot that will take the "alerts" from TOS and paper trade them. Can anyone help?
@@jacobamaral they sent the alerts to your email from the scanner. Essentially, what I would like to do is have a bot scape my gmail account and look for the TOS alerts and then paper trade them.
Thank you so much. every time I run the program and enter the email address and the password ,then the 2FA it did not login ,and it asks me again to enter the email address and the password the the 2FA code .when I enter the 2FA for the second time The console disappears.
I just want to testify about Mr Franklin, He is an account manager with differences, I have been trading with him for much longer than i can say and he has turned my life around, when I was about to loose my house to the bank, he introduced me to a strategy and software that helped me to make over $50,000 in forex market, I can boast with earnings from Mr Franklin trading experience, I don't depend on my salary anymore and I'm living the comfortable life, contact him on Franklinhambj11@gmail.com if you need help
Great job on the programming.. but i have a question... Can this code be used with Ameritrade or must it be totally rewritten to work there... Or can this be run on Ninja trader and work with the ameritrade platform... confused..
you cannot run an automated trading system in ThinkOrSwim. the only thing you can do in TOS is trade manually with some OCO bracket orders. you can also code trade 'alerts'. but if you want an algo trading system to trade your AT account you have to code something completely outside of AT/TOS in a 3rd party program like NinjaTrader. the 3rd party program will connect to AT. hope that helps
Amazing video! Duuude, just found your channel. I need your help! Here's my dilemma, started using multicharts because I actually execute through IB, BUT I need TD data
@@jacobamaral Thanks for the quick reply! Yes, you nailed it, my IB charts and TD charts have slight variations and I've spent sooo much time working on the strategy in TOS already and doing some manual back testing that I'd love to just get it going and not have to readjust. Maybe it will ok, I just don't know yet and want to get it going. And frankly, I absolutely hate IB charts with a passion, so I like to look at TOS where my strategy can paint the bars nicely and I can see the signals. Ninja trader with IB may be a good alternative then? I downloaded it yesterday for the 1st time and it seems impressive at 1st glance. Do you ever help folks review the types of feed they are receiving from IB and maybe tweak that? Perhaps I need to sign up for more stuff. Thank you kindly for the response!
Love the videos. Can you talk a little bit about the PDT rule and how to deal with it as an algorithmic trader? How do you get started if you don't have $25K to invest? Thanks!!
Again thanks for the content. But if people want to know about algo trading, assume they know what a gap up is and what a trailing loss is. This title says Algo TD bot. If they don’t know a gap up who cares? there are other videos. Sorry if that sounds rude. Thanks for your content. Also you may want to tell people. “At the end I’ll show you how to port into TD” as idiots like me comment before the end. Ha
Hey , any chance we can collaborate ...I have a great strategy that is a bit rough ...aroonbot..I call it...it does good one way but I would like it to short then cover also..
This is truly amazing dude. As a CS major and active day trader -- you inspire me. Thank you
You're inspired that he coded a one-trade per day bot that loses money?
FOR THE NIO NEWBIE'S LESS THEN 5 YEARS TRADING ... BUYING THE DIPS IS DONE IN AN UP MARKET NOT DOWN .
After a certain % gain can you modify the trailing stop to be shorter? A much shorter trail stop can determine either up or exit strategy. Locking in profits but not limiting potential.
I don't get how to implement this to the TOS platform?
How would I go about importing this bot into ThinkorSwim?

Wouldn’t whether it was up trending or down trending before the gap; have a large impact on your decision to short or buy?

Does this bot place the trade for you?
Why you titled the video is for tos? What I saw you are doing is NT
when i am back testing it doesn’t let me do 60 minute time frame or higher. any ideas why

Hello Jacob; thank you for this great video. I have an instant scanner/alert setup in TOS. is it possible to auto-import this list into the bot for trading?
Jacob Amaral can you help with that? I would appreciate it. I’ll email you.
@Justin Schupp Actually working on the bot now. What do you use for the scanner? Thinkorswim or something else?
Can I set this up on TOS on my iPad or iPhone?
Novice here.
Maybe you can try in a different time frame -> frequency. Maybe this will allow you to use that trail stop at 1%. Would using condition like sell/buy only if the profit is positive work better or would that cause you to lose more money?
Did you have to pay for the Pro version of NinjaTrader to be able to utilize this functionality?
why didnt you a tutorial using think or swim?
NinjaTrader allows you to easily automate TD Ameritrade trades, ThinkorSwim is more for point and click trading.
