Equities trading Alternatives

C

No longer professionally affiliated and now must trade retail. What are my options at Schwab if I can't trade minis there? Yes, I asked them. I should have posted here first.

Sure had it good when I could just walk over to another trading ring and give someone my order and watch it get filled.
 
For retail i think IB, Lightspeed are both good for equities. Cant beat TOS for options; IB better from commision perspective but software not comparable to tos.

For eminis there are a handful; either IB, TOS are fine i guess. Couple of other good ones i personally have/had accounts with are velocity and mirus.

Thanks. I didn't phrase it right: what I mean is, what can I trade at schwab? In other words, what's the alternative to a futures contract? Some ETF or something? I'm not switching brokers.

Thx in advance.

yeah. I made a market in financial futures while you were skateboarding. I have no earthly f_cking idea what you retail folks trade.

Apparently you don't know the answer, either.

Geez, Baron, who's babysitting these brats now?
