Since SO has members with substantial numbers, i assume no.3 might be the factor that influence the price. Like @Kim said, if He couldn't control others account. Actually, on latest CRM Trade, i got filled before Kim's alert at exact same price but still not fully filled as i intended. I got partial filled on IB and got fully filled on TW based on each account size. In the early days when i just joined SO, i also felt some frustration when see how quick the price got increased after Kim's alert and still to this day i missed a lot of Kim's alert or almost of it . But with much knowledge or strategies that Kim and other mentors have been provided, i think there will be many opportunity to implement it on other tickers and yet we must be proactive to search and research the candidates. My portfolios are based on SO rationale but, yes, it exactly very different with SO Open Trades. Some months, mine could be worse and could be much better than SO performance. Cheers.

I asked about chance for me who Indonesian resident to open an account and Tradier still cannot process my application. I wonder why Tradier could process applicant from EU resident.

I have been trade with TW about 6months and have smaller account than my IB acct. For execution quality, sometimes TW has better execution than IB. It happened with my last 2 cycles for PCLN calendar. With identical limit price on both IB and TW, TW got filled but IB didn't. My main concern about TW, it hasn't OCO/OCA function yet that very helpful to me for placing calendar spread. I often enter many calendar order with different strikes for high price stock, such as PCLN, GOOG, etc. So, i can conclude that execution quality between IB and TW is not much different. Capped commission on TW also give some edge if we want to play with cheap calendar or more than 10 contracts on single leg. This cycle, i played with SWKS 1-week put calendar for around .20 Debit for each spread. Let's say with 10K portfolio, it need 25 spreads for half allocation ($500). With IB, it takes around $65-$70 comm for round-turn. With TW, it "only" takes around $25 round turn due to free comm to close. So, my conclusion that TW still has much room for improvement on their platform and has bright future if the comm structure doesn't change. But, i will stick my large acct with IB due to company stability.

What is the difference between $49 promotion and this $69 promotion? Is there any additional feature on CMLviz ?

Unfortunately, I live in Indonesia so i can't enjoy that Tradier offer for SO members...

Hi let me introduce myself first, i'm Indonesian and live in Indonesia. I currently trade with Interactive Brokers (IB) and enjoy it. I use thinkorswim (tos) paper account to help analyze my position because my internet provider block some IB feature such as risk navigator, etc.. I love thinkorswim platform and many people told that we can negotiate their commission. So, i considered to open an account with TDA but I found that TD Ameritrade can't process applicant from my country. Is someone at this community can help me to open an account at TDA or share another analysis platform? I see that tradestation and livevol can accept Indonesian applicant, but their commission is more expensive than IB.. If someone trade with them, please share your review about those brokerage.. Thanks a lot.
