Rob & Keith: TD Ameritrade now offers TorS to their account holders. Do you have any experience with this version? If so, how does it compare to the full TorS version. It looks pretty comprehensive, but I know so little about options I wouldn't know.

Started a new thread with Don's post ... I'm sure there will be lots of discussion about ToS.

Don,

Have been using TD's version of TOS for a long time and see no difference from the TOS platform which I also use.

On the TD website there is a long list of software tools available to TD customers:
http://www.tdameritrade.com/tradingtools/brow sealltools.html
I looked over this list and it appears that their are a number of TD capabilities that are not integrated yet into the Thinkorswim platform. Some items already exist under a different title (in the TorS platform) while others are new capabilities to TorS.
Based on a conversation with Scott Sheridan that I had a few months ago, the TorS developers are very busy improving and integrating TD concepts into an overall platform. I did hear that the TorS developers pretty much are taking over the process given the acceptance of the TorS platform as the best overall platform.
I will try to get an update on this an report back if and when I get anything tangible.

Thank you Rob: I have the TD TorS. It looks totally new to me and different than anything I'm used to. I understand TorS is a good tool for options trading as well as stocks. I look forward to using it. Just hope the learning curve is not too steep.
