That's why I opened a Webull portfolio. I just keep my Fidelity open for OTC stocks since Webull doesn't have them. [Reply]

Fidelity doesn’t charge anything even when you sell? [Reply]

All free to the average man on the street now.
I don't really know how these places make their money. I presume they're making it all off of mutual fund fees and transaction floats and stuff, so free stock trading is just to lure flies into their web. [Reply]

Fidelity is also revamping their apps and have solicited a bunch of feed back from WSB and reddit users after the influx of people moving from Robinhood.

I've had a Fidelity account for a couple of years now. Very happy with both the website and app but would like to be able to customize my watch lists. [Reply]
I wish my TD would merge in with Schwab already. I rely so heavily on think or swim, but would love access to some of the international indices.
Doesn't look like they anticipate integrating until mid 2023 tho.
Today marks one year of executing my options selling strategy. I have generated a cash return on my brokerage balance of 132%. I continue to refine the strategy, and while activity has slowed down a bit in the past couple months with volatility shriveling, but I suspect that the strategy will be a sustainable source of cash flow for a really long time. I am also curious to see how well I can scale the strategy. [Reply]

Curious about your strategy. Is it to buy at a certain price and then when it goes up sell for profit. That's my strategy but sometimes it doesn't work. [Reply]
