Not looking to get my face on a Bud Light can but I am being transitioned from TD Ameritrade to Schwab over the weekend. I have some open options positions and was wondering how the Schwab Alliance platform is for using options. Curious to hear about it if anyone uses Schwab.
I need to stop deleting emails without reading them. Cause I haven't seen anything about switching to Schwab yet.
I think they are doing it in stages. Not sure why mine is happening this weekend but they are institutional accounts so that may be the reason. I thought if you used Thinkorswim they would transition later but I'm scheduled for this weekend. I'm going to print out all the positions and cash balances in case there is any hiccups. I hope Schwab gets Thinkorswim implemented soon though.Quote:

I really wish they would have just left it alone. They could have just acquired TD and let that be good enough and leave the platform and everything. I'm not looking forward to the switch
My account was moved in February. I do not do many trades. I have not seen any issues with the transition.
Good luck.
I know it is a holiday weekend but it is weird not having access to the account. I feel like a child is missing or something and I can't check on them:laugh:Quote:

My story as well. I haven't spent enough time learning the Schwab platform, but I don't like the layout of the app as well myself. But I don't trade much so I can live with it.Quote:

Yeah it really gets on my nerves.Quote:

interface blows on there now.
Nitro - come back!!!
We need you.
Boneil went almost all cash to get ready to purchase X (formerly Twitter)
Like the rest of you Etrade customers, Morgan stanley. Im not smart enough to know if this is good, bad or ugly!
My transition from TD to Schwab is happening on the 6th. How has it gone for those already there? Working okay? Is Think or Swim an independent app that will follow or be offered by Schwab, or is it simply a TD vehicle that is no longer available once moved?
I am back. I have been busy. Selling our home in NC in a few days and starting the new home in Lake Keowee. We are up here now and moving so have been busy as can be.Quote:

Congratulations on the move.
See if you can convince Boneil to quickly puchase SpaceX or X (he keeps debating which one). Then both of yall will be back online alot.
I have just been buying a lot of corporate, treasuries and agency bonds the last few weeks. I see a recession coming next year and inflation falling so just want to collect my coupons and go fishing soon.Quote:

Getting down to one house and one set of bills will save a lot especially on insurance when we move from Florida. I think we are in for some tough times economically the next year or two but I sort of just hit the wall worrying and just going to move forward come hell or high water.Quote:

I have several surgeries and I need to switch, how?
