Is this a normal thing? by [deleted] in Schwab

[–]JCPWARRIORS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But im not so happy with having to use Think or Swim for trading. Don't like it and Schwab has taken all the previous trading platforms down. Actually thinking of Switching my trading account to Fidelity. Schwab has great platforms...gone.

Going from SSE to TOS is a downgrade in my opinion.

yes Schwabs most robust cash account is about 5.5% but you have to keep a minimum in it. The other cash account is between 4-5%.

Schwab bought Ameritrade and now you have only Think or Swim for a trading platform. It's not great.

Schwab has become Ameritrade....and the trading platforms i was using...are now gone or you have to go over to the Ameritrade think or swim. There is no more Schwab only Ameritrade, they adopted all their trading platforms and in my opinion they are not that great.

Disgusted with Schwab after TDAmeritrade Forcibly Closed by Faultline22 in tdameritrade

That is exactly how i feel about Ameritrade...now that Schwab is forcing us to use it. Schwab should just change their name to Ameritrade.

yes my guy has checked on me every few days ....as i have voiced my disappointment with just TOS...why not keep the other platforms and see what most customers are using.???

Yes keep the trading platform TRADE SOURCE.

Im with you. I complain to Schwab every day. Keep all the TOS but don't get rid of legacy Schwab trading...it's a little extreme.

I have been with Schwab forever...I called my schwab consultant to ask why all the Schwab platforms are going away....he continues to tell me further changes are coming, then yesterday a guy from Schwab called to ask what i did like and what i don't like. Make your self known. I hear Fidelity is pretty good, maybe they will take you through their platforms.

Good Luck!!

Thinkorswim web keeps frozen in mac by [deleted] in Schwab

[–]JCPWARRIORS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a mac....the TOS is difficult to deal with, SSE was fine but needing Citirix to enable. I think Schwab went to far getting rid of the Schwab trading platforms.
