Post From: Charles Schwab allows integration via API

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!
