  • Really enjoying the experience

    Just recently moved one of my portfolios over to TastyTrade (from SoFi… not really for traders, I don’t recommend it even if they do have some options functionality), and really like it so far. A couple of suggestions I have for the dev team:

    Please add the ability to trade an equity or ETF GTC_EXT… having to wake up before the market (Pacific time zone) in order to place these trades every day is a little old. I have the functionality on thinkorswim, would love to have it here. also, would like to have the option to do complex trades transactions such as OCO* that would help with building in a stop on positions or alternatively, a closing order for the profit.

    Thank you in advance for your consideration, and keep up the great work!

  • One issue that makes me want to change brokers.

    A lot of times after hours the account and daily P/L change and gives us random out of park number. Could be to the upside or downside. This has been going on for months and no fix. For example, I have a an account that I am growing and putting money into it. After hours the P/L showed to be -80,000. I almost fainted but it has happened other times with -4,000 or + 3,000. This just gives me anxiety I don't need and looks very unprofessional. If you fix that you will get 5 stars.

  • Great options trading platform - could use better UI

    In all - I love tastytrade! The instant options buying power + ACH’s clearing in a day usually is unbeatable across all the brokers I’ve used over the years. As an options trader, it is nice having options specific tools and interfacing - however I do believe that it could be cleaned up substantially. I find it quite difficult sometimes to just easily send orders / select what I want to trade.

    The platform/brokerage itself I’d give a 9/10 , however the user interface of the app could use a redo - thus I’d give the user interface a 3/10.

    Overall Score: 6/10 / 3-stars

  • Getting better

    Happy to see some improvements rolling out. Always a good sign for the future. Was thinking of switching but I’ll stay a while longer and see if they keep up with their updates.

    Only real grip now is UI experience between iOS and the app, I’m familiar with both, but for new folks the same “controls” should work between apps.

    I was arguing feature parity but I can understand making the iPad a more flushed out experience. I think they can have both with consistent UI gestures though. Really like the swipe controls and press and hold strike movement/delete trade functionality, feels natural.

    Other than that, standard deviation graphs are a bit buggy when showing your profit window. And graphs on iOS could use an overhaul (but they do seem to be improving there too).

    Biggest selling point for me with Tasty is their options first focus in the apps, it’s unique to all trading apps and provides option traders with some pretty great option analysis tools.

  • Tastey works app

    Once you get used to the app on your phone, because it’s a little different the the computer it off to the races. You can trade from anywhere which equals freedom. My only concern is my service or phone.
    I really like how intuitive the program is though, it makes life easy. Tastey works itself doesn’t seem to have any live person actually working customer help. It is next to impossible to actually find a number for them. Most email communication has been answered in less then 24 hours though. The prices are pretty good on the site or are at least better then others.

  • I like the desktop and App

    I like both the desktop and app with regards to putting on option positions quickly. But Tasty charges $1 per leg per option. Opening 10 verticals is way more expensive than some others. Closing costs are not complimentary either. This cost and fee structure may force my hand to a Fidelity or WeBull based on the saved money. The simplicity of the option trade table is adding up quickly.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for the feedback. We charge $1 commission per option on opening equity option transactions and $0 commission on closing equity option transactions. You will still pay clearing and regulatory fees on both the opening and closing orders. We do offer a commission cap of $10 per leg regardless of quantity for equity options.
