Looking for a brokerage with functional, individual API access to, at least, account positions, balances, and equity/fund/bond prices. Used to be happy with TDA, but they got bought by Scwab, whose API has been “pending” for six months.

    I understood that TDA accounts with API would continue to work. Did yours stop working?

    I delayed moving an account to TDA with API because I wanted to wait for the first to settle.

      As long as it’s actually a TDA account, the API will work. They’re transitioning all those accounts to Schwab, though. Once they transition your account, you no longer have TDA account, so no TDA credentials to authenticate with the API.

        Yes but I’ve read that Schwab will have its own API. I read that within the last two months. I’ve also been told as much by a rep, with disclaimers of course. That was a year ago.

        Either way, I expect schwab to have an API. Why else buy TD?
