Decent platform for most traders.
"Given the lack of options for me, E*TRADE was the first firm I went with. To date, I think the functions are sufficient for people like me (and most traders). Started off with the web-based platform and later on went with the PRO version, and really liked the PRO. A decent broker to go with if yo Read more...

Power ETrade Pro is great, but not for automated trading
"I've had an account with ETrade for the past 6 months, strictly for using Power ET Pro, specifically Level 2s & time/sales. I have not used them to any trades so I can't speak to that.

Great level 2, small margin requirements, easy to find shorts, decent fills pre-market, easy to use, good customer service, overall a good experience if you need a place to go under $100k in your account.

We've parted ways.
I was a former client who spent low 5 figures a year in commissions. Took some time off and when I came back I had an execution problem (no fault of my own) and they were not willing to do anything to remedy the situation. Their tools are decent and got the job done, but I can't work with someone w Read more...

Better Than Others
Etrade is a solid broker, but I wouldn't use them if you are an active trader as their commission rates are too high for active trading. A good broker for swing trading. They have a solid platform. I like that you can have both a brokerage and checking account with them and can transfer money betwee Read more...
