Robinhood had an outage today and as I always suspected my decision to use them, it dint feel good to be locked down with my speculative trades on calls. They were in $500+ positive for each and I couldn't close them when I wanted. Their platform is definitely easy to use but not reliable as proved today. Will be moving away.
Looking for easy to use on mobile platform which is reliable( don't care about 0 commission that much). I am not a day trader and do play speculative trades with some funds.
TD mobile seems fine. If you can use WIFI at work something like an Amazon fire is slick for a backup. They are very inexpensive and have a larger screen. I'm just using the PC format with that. I prefer it over a phone when I have a choice, but my phone is nothing special either. I hope the trades ended well enough, or are they still open? I heard the Robinhood episode was pretty much an all day event. That sucks.
