"Other discount online brokers sometimes offer rock-bottom per-trade rates but then fail to maximize investor value by getting less than optimal execution, and this can adversely impact a customer's return," said Pete Bottini, Executive Vice President of Trading at optionsXpress. "Our XpressRouter, combined with our talented execution team at optionsXpress, deliver industry-leading trade execution which often results in significant direct savings to optionsXpress customers while offering competitive commission rates. In fact our XpressRouter has generated over $7 million in direct savings to our customers."*
XpressRouter aims to seek out the best possible price for each order by seeking liquidity through multiple channels -- exchanges and market makers. In many cases XpressRouter has identified opportunities to buy and sell at a significant advantage over the current NBBO (National Best Bid and Offer), which may provide optionsXpress customers with an edge over traders on other platforms. XpressRouter, through which every eligible trade at optionsXpress is routed, is one of the many benefits to trading stocks, options, futures, ETFs, bonds and mutual funds on optionsXpress' award-winning trading platform.**
"Our passion and driving goal is to provide our customers with unmatched access to the market," said David Fisher, Chief Executive Officer of optionsXpress. "XpressRouter gives them that edge, allowing them to buy lower, sell higher and maximize returns."
