Likelihood to Recommend	thinkorswim I would not hesitate to recommend thinkorswim to someone who wants to get into the stock market. The opportunity to use "paper money" can help beginners learn the fundamentals of trading without any risk. Although the trial period is only 60 days, [that's a] good amount of time for new users to learn enough before venturing out into the real world. Adding to the positives, thinkorswim mobile app is superb and a great way to keep up with your portfolio on the go. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	TradingView 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.

Alternatives Considered	thinkorswim I have personally used Charles Schwab mobile app and online page for about 3 years and have been thoroughly satisfied. Before TD Ameritrade and Charles Schwab merged, I had used thinkorswim for the 60-day paper money trial before using my real money on investments. I confidently believe the time I've spent on thinkorswim has helped me mitigate any big losses in my investments. As for robinhood, the mobile app is a lot better for beginners to understand and the UI can be described as more aesthetically pleasing. thinkorswim triumphs in many other aspects [as well] such as being backed up by TD Ameritrade and Charles Schwab and the plethora of knowledge [a user can access].

Return on Investment	thinkorswim Easy to place orders Easy to analyse stocks Easy to check over all portfolio Incentivized Sunil Agarwal Technical Lead - SRE Read full review	TradingView Trading is a peculier activity so this metric is purely subjective and depends on each trader's experience.
