Looking to build a robot / script with Thinkorswim platform

[kashane]

it could be for either futures or stocks, preferably stocks.

I've been doing some research of my own but maybe someone out there can help point me in a better direction.

maybe someone has advice and might tell me that thinkorswim is not the platform to try and build a robot on?

I don't think they allow any automated trading on their platform. I like TOS because I can trade everything in one place. Not having robots no longer bothers me, because well...robots are not the answer. Haven't found one yet that can stand the test of time or trade as well as a good trader.
