Drag a column wider, or hide the ones you don't watch. The desk stays that way the next time you open it.
Preset sizes sit on each row, including your default. Set all quantities changes every symbol in one click.

Multi-symbol chains
Several underlyings. Three strikes around the money.
Each row is a symbol you are watching. ITM, ATM, and OTM bid, ask, and spread stay in the same table.

TWS is extremely capable. NeonChainX is a focused execution surface for the day-trading loop: the symbols you are watching, the spread you are paying, and the button that sends the order.

Connect to the TWS session you already run

Your broker login stays local
NeonChainX reaches Interactive Brokers through the TWS or IB Gateway session running on your own machine. Your broker credentials are never sent to us.
A desktop app, not a browser tab
