It is now confirmed that Schwab is working with DAS Trader to connect via API. I think it would be incredible for Sierra Chart to reach out to Schwab about exploring a partnership as well. It would be great for SC to expand their territory and add another equities broker besides IBKR. From what I understand, Schwab has made this process quick and painless. DAS only started beta testing recently, and they are already looking at an early June launch. Sierra Chart, is an integration with Schwab possible? I say strike while the iron is hot! |

Following up to see if there's been any development in this regard. Used to trade on IB and TDAmeritrade with DasTrader, currently awaiting the production version of DasTrader-Schwab integration to move off the temp solution(Thinkorswim)..,but if SierraChart can integrate with Schwab, that'll be a huge win for many Equity traders... Take it away from DasTrader! SC Engineering, can you pls *please* up the priority of SC-Schwab api integration? |

Seconding this and hoping it's treated as important for the SC team. Schwab equities/ETF trades are commission free (unlike IBKR); commissions on options trading is generally more favorable at Schwab than IBKR as well. The API notice here (https://developer.tdameritrade.com/content/trader-api-schwab-integration-guide-june-2023-update) states that "Futures, Futures options, and Forex order entry will not be available," but that's actually fine. Most of us have dedicated futures brokers anyway because Schwab futures commissions are not competitive. But if traders could place stock and option trades and monitor their positions at Schwab through Sierra Chart, that would be an absolute game changer (both for traders and for Sierra Chart). Please make it happen guys! |

honestly if this actually happened, this would be the greatest thing since sliced bread. it would benefit sierrachart too because schwab is like one of the biggest brokerages. they're one of those too-big-to-fail brokerages and everyone i know who trades stocks/options prefers schwab over interactive brokers because of thinkorswim.

Hi SC engineering. Were you able to check anything regarding the Charles Schwab API? Partnering with a 0 commission stock broker would be a total win. On the other platforms compatible with stock brokers you can't even plot candlesticks less than 1 minute. SC is far superior in all aspects and would help exploit new strategies in stock trading. Please SC make it possible!
