IBD also singled out for praise TradeStation's OptionStation Pro options trading and analysis platform. "A new organization of tools and streamlined navigation increased the efficiency and ease-of-use for clients," according to IBD. "OptionStation Pro provides the analytic depth that TradeStation is known for with its robust database. Working with spreads? TradeStation boasts that its SpreadMaster technology helps track performance for custom spreads. You also get visually appealing profit and loss charts, customizable columns in options chains and more."
