How Do We Look So Far?

We'd love your feedback as we continue to develop our new trading platform. We know this initial version is limited, so please comment on what's there and what you hope to see instead of what's missing. Currently available features include:

• Rapid Order Entry: Quickly enter orders from the Price panel with our streamlined Rapid Order Entry panel, and create rapid orders from within Watchlists and Option Chains. Easily update the limit price using the Price Wand. Use the full Order Ticket when needed for more order parameters.
• Charts: Enjoy Advanced Charts with multi-chart layout mode (see up to eight different charts!) with optional synching for instrument, time periods and intervals and crosshair.
• Options: Easily create options orders with Option Chains, and multi-leg combinations with the Strategy Builder. Elect to mirror option chain columns with a click and toggle the display between List and Tab views.
• Derivatives: Other derivatives tools including Performance Profile, Option Rollover, Exercise/Lapse Options tool and support for trading options on futures.
• News & Research: Customizable News & Research is accessible as a new tab in the Quote panel, and from the See More News link in the right-panel News tile.
• Column Customization: Create custom views or select pre-defined system views with specific column sets to optimize your column customization! Available for Option Chains, Watchlists, and Portfolio.
• Hotkeys: Use keyboard combinations to complete common order creation and platform actions like buy, sell, cut and paste, insert, and more. Create custom hotkey combinations to perform frequently used actions like create a sell limit order or a buy market order.
• Search: Quickly find instruments using Search in the title bar. Currently supported assets include stocks, ETFs, options (single and multi-leg combos), futures, and funds.
• Notification Center: Create Market and Price Alerts, manage FYIs and other notifications in the Notification Center.
