In thinkorswim, how can I know when I have a closing order set for any open trades I have? I think I know but just want to confirm; so far I've placed most of my trades in the evening, so there's been a delay with opening my positions, I have to do some catch-up to make sure I set up the closings too.
How can I look at trade activity older than one day? I swear I was able to filter it before to "in the last 7 days" etc. but I cannot for the life of me find that option now.
How can I see how much of my cash is tied up in cash secured puts? My "Cash & Sweep Vehicle" amount in paper trading doesn't seem to reflect this (I'd love to learn exactly what that number is meant to reflect). So even in my paper trading I don't want to run around writing a bunch of cash secured puts without understanding how much cash I have that isn't already committed. Writing one put contract for Microsoft, for example, requires a substantial amount of cash on hand!
In charts, how do I zoom out? At one point I selected an area of a chart to zoom in on part of it, but I can't figure out how to get back out! ...nevermind I just figured it out. But I would also like to know how I can adjust the charts to show, say, weekly activity vs. daily, or change the timeframe between 5Y/1Y/3M/etc.
Also in charts, I see an icon for Trendline but can't see how to use it. In some of the books I'm reading certain trendlines are really important for chart interpretation, so I'd like to see how to view those and customize them if necessary.
