Very cool idea - will be playing around with this. A couple of questions: 1) I see you offer Options and equities - do you have fixed income products like treasuries or munis? 2) Based on the example for the option chains, it looks like you have historic option data. How far back does your option history go? I realize it may vary based on ticker.

  Hello! Tradier Brokerage operation does support fixed income securities, but we currently don't offer this through our website or APIs. I noted that you'd be interested in something like that. If you've got more detailed questions regarding trading, feel free to email service@tradierbrokerage.com. Regarding options history: it is ticker based. Some data goes back as far as 2009 others as soon as January of this year. It also depends a bit on the interval granularity you're looking for.

    Thanks, all as expected on the options history, and good to know about the fixed income products.

Cool idea. The cheapest options broker AFAIK are: IB, ToS and Lightspeed. Are you guys a new brokerage from the ground-up or offer value-add from a white-label brokerage provider? Margin rates are higher than IB. Outgoing transfer fees are high. The option trade is cheap if you trade high volume but not good for retail traders like me who trade in 1 or 2 lot of index options. Historical option data offering is intriguing as I and others actually pay out of pocket for historical option data as IB and ToS don't have good offering.
