I don't even have a copy of TWS but it sounds like it is in the new download.
You may want to check https://www.multicharts.com/net/ and see if there is a download on their site.

Again, I don't know since I use neither one at this time.
Good Luck

Thank you. I'm not sure if it's even worth it to me now that i think about it. I may just stick with Ninjatrader charts.

To get Multicharts you have to open TWS. It is integrated in the platform (beta).
Go to Analytical Tools meny and you wil find it.

In TWS go to Analytical Tools and you will notice Multichart Icon.
