Thinkorswim allows 19 custom quotes for use as customized columns. They can be used on the Trade tab, Stock Hacker Scans, and Market Watch Quotes.
In order to use the Custom Quotes you must first be on one of the screens that support them. Right-click on any column heading and select Customize.
Type 'custom' in the search box that says 'Lookup a column...' This will filter out all but your custom columns, even ones that you rename.
Click the scroll icon for the custom column you want to edit. Click on the thinkScript Editor tab and delete any code that exists. Copy the desired code and paste it on line 1. Fill in the Column name to match.
After customizing each column they must be added to the current display set. You'll probably have to remove some of the existing columns to make room. Make sure that you save the Workspace so that your customizations are easily recalled.
How do you delete a custom quote that you have created and turn it back into say "Custom 1" again?
ReplyDeleteJUST REUSE IT AS ANOTHER CUSTOM QUOTE
ReplyDeleteNo way to SAVE a change to an existing Custom Quote Column script (in Stock Hacker scans). The only buttons in an opened Thinkscript Editor are APPLY and OK. They do not save any change to the Custom Quote Column script, not even a Custom Quote Column name change. You have to copy and paste the changed script code into a new Custom Quote script window like "Custom 12". There are a limited number of Custom Quotes available to make columns from, too. I don't want to use them all up. Can't Delete a Custom Quote column script either, that I have found.
