The discount brokerage plans to combine TD’s trading platform with its own platform, StreetSmart Edge, to provide a unified trading experience for clients, according to the announcement. DD Long Story very short, I am checking out StreetSmart Edge trading platform. All fees being equal between TT, TDA & Schwab: Edge is looking like a very powerful platform and might even give TOS a run for my money.
TIP: Many StreetSmart Edge® menu items are available by right-clicking in the software. To right-click using a single-button Mac mouse, press and hold the CTRL button when you click. There may be additional methods found in the preferences of the device you use (Trackpad, Mighty Mouse, laptop touch pad, etc.).
