Every eligible trade at optionsXpress is routed through the XpressRouterSM, which seeks out the best possible price by identifying opportunities to either buy at a lower price or sell at a higher price than the current NBBO (National Best Bid and Offer), thus potentially improving the cost basis of the trade.
The new XpressSavings notice on order status windows, trade ticket displays, and e-confirmations shows optionsXpress customers the better value they received on their trades thanks to this technology. It’s just one more way that optionsXpress is giving customers an edge.
