Hello, I'm currently with optionsXpress but I am unhappy with the executions and slow software. I trade stocks, options and futures with them on a single account and would like this feature with my new broker. Many brokers that I researched require their customers to have a separate stock/options and futures account. Does anyone have any recommendations? I would also prefer a broker with direct access software.
We offer our institutional clients equities, options and futures through one platform, but all futures trading must be done in a segregated account. And yes, our platform offer DMA and managed routes. Send me a PM if you'd like to talk.....Bob
You choices are limited for an all-in-one broker. You either have the ubiquitous Interactive Brokers or one of the Penson cleared brokerages that offer all-in-one, like MB Trading.
ThinkorSwim has everything on it's platform . You can trade stock , futures, options on one margin account. I'm not sure if it's "direct access" though.
