Hello!!!

I am looking for any insight into "Trade Station" Any personal experience that someone can share? Or any other discount company that might be both useful and easy to use?

I am currently with Optionsxpress (Schwab) both IRA and trading accounts.
Commissions are really cutting into my bottom line :(

I like to make options trades and most often do only 1-2 at a time. I would also like to do spread positions in my IRA and generally would like to have more flexibility with that account. At present, I CAN sell puts if I reserve the money for stock purchase.

I am able to make any multi-leg/put selling, etc. trade in the other account. I keep seeing that MF portfolios trades seem to cost WAY less than the $15.00 options order price/$10.00 equity trade I am paying.
I've appreciated my current Optionsxpress accout because it is so easy to use.

But I'm ready to move on.

Thanks for any insight/advice out there!

ps....new to the boards so wasn't sure if I should add to this board or start another

thanks, jm
