Trading options sites are one of the tools that you need to build a successful trading strategy. The challenge is that it seems like there are as many trading sites, as there are people that trade securities. Not all of those sites will help you make money as a trader, but you can start with some of the top trading sites and move to other ones that fit into your strategies.
