Thanks woodn1, I got it on my TOS now..... but there are 1" square dark blue boxes right in the middle of each chart labeled "sidebar".....any idea how to get those off ???! lol

Use dropdown where you saved the chart and uncheck the Customize Grid Box. That's how you add / remove chart panels in the Flex Grid to use1 above & 3 below.

OK Thanks for the replies woodn1

Thanks for doing that woodn1!! Quick question, do you understand what Greg's referring to when he said all charts should sync?

I have an Ameritrade account... but I am clueless how to use this link. When I clicked it, it wasn't obvious and the pop up ask if I wanted to let this app change my computer. Is there an easy 3 step method to populating the info in the link to the TOS platform? Do I log into my account first and then past the link somewhere or import it? I just don't know...

Easy Manual way:

1 CTRL-C the link above to copy it.

2 On your open platform, select Flexible Grid tab ( it's next to the Charts tab)

3 find the Setup Tab ( upper right corner with a gear icon) and click it and select Open Sheared Item from the drop down menu

4 CRTL-V to paste the link and click Preview and then Import

5 A small ToS window opens showing you the layout. In the upper reght area you'll see the title of the flex grid layout called Mannarino Intra Day. Next to that is a 9 square icon with a dropdown arrow in the lower right corner... click on the arrow.

6 A dropdown appears, please select the Save Flexible Grid As option

7 a small dialog box appears with the name of the layout. You can keep it or change it here. Than click save, and OK at the next little confirmation box

8 you can now close this window.

9 whenever you want to use this layout you can go to the Flexible grid tab and over on the right side find that little 9 square layout tab and select the dropdown arrow and Mannarino will be the with any other layouts you create.

Thank you

just a pitty that apparently I cannot create an account here in Belgium/Europe.

I can download and install ToS but cannot open it since an account is needed.

I would like to see the indicator parameters .... so I can copy them in Tradingview ...

Expand full comment

Greg posted the parameters in the notice

Expand full comment

oh thank you.

the notice we receive as email?

I see the screenshots but still ...

like Bollinger bands -0.1 ?, 0.1 ? , Hull (instead of sma I suppose)

and in KC I have only Length and Multiplier .. not 0.1? nor Hull

in LBR PaintBars I see everything except the Hull parameter? Hull for the ATR?

sorry for disturbing

you'll have to make do. LBR is Linda Radske proprietary indicator. You can download a copy of ToS from TD Ameritrade for paper trading for free. Then place trades in your real acct.

Huge thank you to you for setting up that grid and sharing it. I have TDA accounts and didn't even know that ToS would open without a TDA account because it always shows me a sign in window requiring account number and password. LOL

Expand full comment

Thanks bro ! I now need to open a TOS account ...

Expand full comment

do it . Been using for years. Demo for paper trade. Don't have to fund it.

Expand full comment

Demo ? Is it free ?

Expand full comment

yes. Go to TD Ameritrade

Expand full comment

The demo paper trading has a 20 minute delay on data. So wouldn't this be a disadvantage?

Expand full comment

Yes you need a funded acct to paper trade real time.

Okay, sorry I've been using ToS for a long time.

Here is a tutorial on opening a shared item in ToS platform

ToS Shared Layout for Mannarino's Intra Day system

https://tos.mx/5ry1MMr

Easy Manual way:

1 CTRL-C the link above to copy it.

2 On your open platform, select Flexible Grid tab ( it's next to the Charts tab)

3 find the Setup Tab ( upper right corner with a gear icon) and click it and select Open Shared Item from the drop down menu

4 CRTL-V to paste the link and click Preview and then Import

5 A small ToS window opens showing you the layout. In the upper right area you'll see the title of the flex grid layout called Mannarino Intra Day. Next to that is a 9 square icon with a dropdown arrow in the lower right corner... click on the arrow.

6 A dropdown appears, please select the Save Flexible Grid As option

7 a small dialog box appears with the name of the layout. You can keep it or change it here. Than click save, and OK at the next little confirmation box

8 you can now close this window.

9 whenever you want to use this layout you can go to the Flexible grid tab and over on the right side find that little 9 square layout tab and select the dropdown arrow and Mannarino will be the with any other layouts you create.

10 you can create unlimited multi-window layouts with this tool. Just select Customize Grid from that 9square layout dropdown. YouTube Flexible Grid in Think or Swim for more.

Apologies for causing any confusion.

use the little dropdown menu where you save the layout & deselect customize. Those boxes allow yo to add/split windows into more panels. That's why this grid is Flexible and the charts grid is not.

Expand full comment

Thanks for doing that. Was able to get that on my mac/ameritrade/tos. That was light-years above my computer literacy. Could never have done that without you taking the time.

Thanks russ

Expand full comment

He is using Thinkorswim platform. I will try repeat it on tradingview but don't know when. Unless someone already set it up already

Expand full comment

Hey Greg! I guess we have to become sophisticated technical traders to follow your work from now on. Thanks for leaving some of us in the dust LOL
