Patricia,

Regardless of the product that you choose at Etrade, you will be subject to what is called payment for order flow, whereby Etrade sells your order to a market making firm that then takes a position against your trade.

To avoid having your orders sold, you will need to use a direct access broker.

Hope this helps,
