    I apologize if this has been answered somewhere else but what options broker is most recommended for doing spreads, charting and analyzing, and low fees?

    Equity options or Futures Options?

    Good question RobertG. It also helps to know:

    -Size of your account
    -Do you need Portfolio Margin
    -Average monthly volume
    -Average order size(Some brokers have ticket fees)
    -How important is customer support to you

    Unfortunate, the answers to some questions might bring a few more questions. In general, if this will be a "small" retail account, I prefer TD Ameritrade for options. If it's more institutional, I can help.

    I use use LIvevol Core. I get 0.35 cents a options contract. Looks like you can get the same with oneoption also. Check them out, I like both

    I thought LiveVol Core was for analytics, not execution.
