TDAmeritrade Data Availability, Usability, Etc.

[Rich_O]

I'm considering switching to a different broker since E*Trade does not connect with MW.
I was looking into TDAmeritrade but can't find any information about availability of data from them on their web pages.
Do they charge a fee for data? Is it reliable? Is there any "maintenance" downtime?
I did try IB for a while. They charge a fee for data and there was a lot of downtime when I was trying to use it.
Just wondering if TDA is a good alternative.
Thanks,,
Rich

TDA is ok. Their api supports only stocks and indices when access through MW. There is no fee. When you open an account with them you will be able to use their native platform Thinkorswim which is available for all OS as an alternative to MW.
