    20 minutes late is still better than a WHOLE DAY outage. But sure, if you have real dough, keep it at multiple brokerages.

    Can't they just come up with explanation like...

    ,,Corona Killed Our CFO" or something.:D

    RH users would buy into that.

  9. Yes we are. However we cater to active traders, so we provide an option of either trading commission free, or direct access where you can choose the way in which you route your order which gives you best possible execution. You can review our pricing here: www.tradezero.us/pricing
    If you trade adding liquidity and you route to NASDAQ, we will actually pay you $1.00 per 1000 shares to trade with us!
