No but I’ve heard it’s a good platform. Morgan Stanley is absolute shite and hopefully don’t mess with e trade too much.

I think we are in for some major consolidation here shortly with Fido leading.

I do but I don't trade a lot. Just a broad ETF for savings. I've always like the platform and info available.

Yes, love it, but I’m not happy about the buyout.

Damn, my money has been moved all over the place in recent years. First, I had Sharebuilder which was sold to Capital One. They later sold it to e Trade. Now I'm going to be with Morgan Stanley.

E Trade has been fine for me.

I use Etrade.. Love it, easy to navigate and great tutorials for a beginner. Hope they leave the platform alone.

I use Etrade because that's where my company ESOP was before they quit doing it.

I'm not worried about it just yet.

Are they going to remain an independent trading platform or will they get absorbed into Schwab's

I’ve used ETrade for years for my trading account with Vanguard for long-term holdings. Love it. Wish I still owned the stock.

I’m not overly concerned with the branding, as long as they keep the Think or Swim platform largely as is. Although some additions to the app based platform (like notes and improvements to the calendar feature) wouldn’t hurt my feelings. IMO, the iPhone app version is superior to the iPad version - much cleaner.

Same here on all of what you stated. Sharebuilder was my first. ETrade has been great.

Me too. Capital one was the most convenient with withdrawing money.
