ThinkorSwim began it's development, at the end of the 20th century. A beautiful platform, that revolutionized trading for many retail traders. An absolute positive force, in making trading accessible for retail traders. Tom and Scott not only made trading accessible? But have always provided INCREDIBLE customer service, regardless of an individuals account size. They sold ThinkorSwim and the associated accounts, to TD Ameritrade. And now here in 2023, Charles Schwab has bought TD Ameritrade accounts (along with associated ThinkorSwim) from TD Ameritrade But, ThinkorSwim, the middleware, has become a bit antiquated. Will active execution be turned on? What are the complications of doing so? Is it time to put ThinkorSwim into semi-retirement for myself?
