  1. Are those who are with OptionsXpress pretty happy with them? I'm contemplating opening an account with them, but I would like to hear the opinions of some of the other members here first. I'm currently using Scottrades Options First, and it just plain sucks!

    Maybe I am in error, but I am pretty sure that they charge me for both sides of it in a cash account. In the margin acct I have, it would be 6000 minus the credit.
