E*TRADE vs. TradingView

During the COVID pandemic, the airline companies were taking a big hit on travel and I saw this as a great opportunity to invest in airline stock because its value in the market had dropped tremendously. I used this opportunity to invest in multiple airline stocks through e-trade by buying the stock at an all-time low for airline stock. It was a great investment for me in the long term.

This platform is suited for retail traders that use discretionary trading strategies and automated strategies alike. As far as HFT goes I cannot say as I haven't developed any strategies of that kind. So, i can't determine its appropriateness. For forex and stock trading I would say it has everything you need. I also can't vouch for how well it performs for options traders, I would imagine it may not be the go to app as I don't see any og the Greeks that options traders would need to monitor to make trading decisions.

• I like their sell orders that allow you to set a price or percentage as a stop loss.
• Their dashboard is easy to use and gives you some quick info.
• I also like E*TRADE's reports for gains and losses.
• Moving funds into and out of your accounts is pretty simple with E*TRADE.

• nothing I can think of so far

robinhood is similar to e-trade but they are geared more to bitcoin and companies that may not be offered on E*TRADE because they are off-market companies.
