I want to read in a few external parameters as inputs to a study. What is the best way to do that? These parameters would vary from one stock to another and are generated by an external program. I can add these as inputs, but then I have to manually change them every time I open a new ticker. Is there any way to make this automated?

Thinkorswim itself is not able to read data from an external source. There may be some way you could employ the TD Ameritrade API to accomplish this. But that is not a topic I am interested in pursuing.

There was a similar post several months ago. The request was to take key levels generated by an external source and have them automatically plot those key levels on a chart. There is no direct solution to this.
