Be sure to get the Delta Trader Pro application. It's MUCH better than using the web site. You get multiple levels of confirmation as your trade works it's way through the system. They do option trades as fast as Datek USED to do stock trades... The quotes are real-time on Pro, BTW, but are delayed on the web site.

The only drawback to Pro is that is doesn't do option analytics, which are available on the web site. But with delayed quotes, the analytics on the web site are not all that useful. (Good for end-of-day stuff, though.) The Java applet for the analytics can act a bit flakey and takes some getting used to.

They also have GREAT telephone responsiveness, and I believe the same commission rates for phone trades. And very good commission rates - it's a $19.95 MINIMUM and I think $2.50 per contract. (Not $19.95 + so much per contract.) All of my trades have been $19.95.

They specialize in options trading, and offer statuatory-minimum margins on spreads, etc.

Besides all that, I think they are just plain good karma. I've doubled the value of my account in the 6 weeks since signing up with them. :)
