Best Brokerage?

As I am becoming increasingly active in my PA, I was wondering what Brokerage you guys are using and why? I’ve heard great things about IB and Ameritrade. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated

IB is best overall. Cheap options, by far lowest interest on margin, custom portfolio reports, negligible fees (you can chose between tiered and fixed), as well as easy access from phone and computer makes it my favourite platform. It also allows you to become more complex and move away from equities and options but also trade bonds, commodities, fx, prediction markets, crypto, etc. I’m a big fan… now that I think about it, DM for referal?
