E*Trade: Primed To Turn Around?

Well ,Voice of Reason, I would have to agree with you there, Think Or Swim is a dumb name like I mentioned before. But they do backup their slick interface with some nice features especially for options traders. You can also trade futures in the same account. One nice/funny feature they have is a Shadow Trader chat room. Basically a guy who sits around all day making commentaries on the market and brings attention to certain stocks. The guy also takes questions from users and you can see his charts in real time. The best part is during slow times he gets out a trading improvement book and starts to read it to you! Even if you're at work listening to him all day long would provide some very good market information and trading education. Features like that are sprinkled all over their platform, go take a look.
