OptionsXpress to Add fully Automated Equities Trading

  1. I am annoyed because I got an email telling me that there is not a discounted commission rate for the automated trading pilot. Looks like they are going to keep their standard rate of 9.99 in and 9.99 out. I personally think OptionsXpress is completely missing the point of automated trading with these commissions. If this works like the way I have been testing I will trade it with them to check it out and then switch to another broker that has normal commission rates.

  2. You hand them some money and dial in what kind of return you want? I chose 10% per month. Didn't want to seem too greedy :D

  3. Completely automated does nto mean magic. It means I set everything up and the software does the execution and risk management based on my settings without me having to punch keys.

    How did you get in it? How's the program going? Sounds like a great idea to automate trading ... I didn't like my Tradestation account too much, but like trading through OptionsXpress? Thanks!
