I think that Schwab just made a HUGE mistake, that will cost them the business of MANY traders.
Anybody else launched the new version of SSP? Apart from the struggle to make it work like I had the only version working (wow, talk about a non-intuitive link), I believe (one day use, so don't take as gospel) that the news flags stay up, regardless that you'd like to clear them and wait for a fresh flag.
Is this true??? If so, what in the world were the idiots thinking of? The news feed and "fresh flag" attribute were the only reasons to use the sucker!
In addition, I've been asking for a year for a "time of last trade" sortable column, so that one could make a list of illiquid stocks and wait for the occasional gift.
Amazing. I'm one of their oldest clients, I've often voiced opinions about what enhancements could be made to the platform, and I'm an active trader. Was I invited to take a "beta test" look? No.
Am I looking through a narrow window after only one day of use? Is this as bad as it appears?
Someone at Schwab, anyone.... Potruck? Do you have the guts to stop this rollout if you've designed the platform in a vacuum? Amazing. |
