Does Tradestation include futures and currency trading unlike Ameritrade or E trade?
E trade and Ameritrade is just stocks, options and bonds isn’t it unlike Tradestation?
The three to brokers (as per Barron’s) that handle Stocks, Options, Futures and Forex are;
Tradestation, (great platform, $100 a month)
ThinkOrSwim (great platform (free, great service & education)
Interactive Brokers (poor platform, poor service, best pricing).
You can’t compare Ameritrade or E-Trade to the above brokers. Ameritrade & E-Trade are set up to assist the "investor". The three listed above are for the "trader".
i thought E-trade does that
