I’ve been with tos since 2002. At one point I left to optionsXpress so I could use a web-based system, but I went back after just 6 months. If you trade options, open a test account. The platform is amazing. Data is free. Support is incredible. Places to improve: more futures markets. They have some futures, certainly not all. They get the next half-star when they add more currency futures and energy futures. Places they excel: their new web-based platform is excellent, it does lack their analyze page. The desktop platform is top-notch – no complaints. Markets: stocks, options, mutual funds, futures (some) and forex.

Well they’re the only broker I’ve ever used but I don’t have any complaints. They seem to have everything you need to trade properly and the support is great. The platform is also excellent. I just wish their FX stuff was better, but I definately recommend them for options.

I started with optionsxpress and moved to TOS. Their platform is excellent & they upgrade and enhance it often (monthly it seems)and they give you a free monkey to boot when you open an account. Fills are speedy and the support is speedy as well and very helpful. My only complaint is what they charge for commissions on futures. $3.50 a side is pricey compared to others out there, which is why I trade futures with another broker. That is all that keeps them from getting a higher rating from me.
