Here is a quick update on Tradier while using the TradeHawk platform. Tradier execution continues to be as good as OptionsXpress was for me (and they have very good execution). The TradeHawk platform is very good. There are some things that need tweaking but they are ridiculously responsive (see email below). I will mention that you do need to have a large monitor (or multiples which is a compatible configuration) to work with this platform. All windows are found on the main "Command Center" page, rather than multiple pages or tabs. This takes up a lot of screen real estate. They can all be detached or maximized, but there are times where you will want to work with multiple windows simultaneously which is most easily done from the Command Center. I will continue to make suggestions to the developer to improve the platform and as mentioned above here is an example of that thus far:
Hi Scott,
Looks like many of your suggested changes have been added to version 1.0.12. I'm messing around with them now.
1. For Cost basis of position, there is a button up top of the Risk Portfolio that allows a toggle between cost per contract/share and total position cost. Also, a current VALUE column has been added.
2. If you choose a confirmation box before a trade, when you go to modify an order from the Order page, a box will appear confirming your changes.
3. Mid point for spreads not there yet...give us a bit on that one.
4. For stock traders, auto exit order is available now.
Let me of any questions.
Thanks,
Lex
