No, never did move from E-trade although I reduced - and Mr. Market reduced - the value of the accounts that I have there. I've no account at ThinkorSwim. I've looked at Ameritrade...I don't believe I'd be happy there. Ultimately I couldn't find a new broker that I liked better than what I would be giving up by leaving E-trade. Not saying E-trade is the best brokerage out there: For some of my purposes there are better brokerage accounts than E-trade, and I have accounts with these too.
