Trade Sharing
Sliced bread has nothing on mytrade’s new trade sharing feature, thinkshare.
Here’s the basics:
First of all, you must be a thinkorswim client to take advantage of this feature. And you should be anyway, as they are the #1 broker, hands down.
Once inside thinkorswim, anytime you place a trade you can check a box that says “share on mytrade”. You can also put in a note about why you like the trade. Then when you send the trade for execution it is shared on mytrade’s thinkshare system.
Then anyone can view it, see the details (a more detailed ‘trade page’ is in the works) and even copy the trade.
With one click, the trade is copied, and with another it is pasted into the thinkorswim trade queue. There you can edit/analyze/execute the trade.
We just launched thinkshare yesterday and its a hit. We already have a ton of improvements lined up and in the works. But please please let us know what other features you’d like to see.
Here’s a screenshot of all three functions: share, copy and paste…
