GETTING STARTED WITH ATP involves downloading and installing the 29-MB file to your Windows-based PC. "The enhancements we're announcing to our trading and research platforms deliver on our commitment to provide our brokerage customers with institutional-grade tools to help them become better investors and traders." Burton, senior vice president, Fidelity Personal and Workplace Investing. "Traders look for an edge in volatile markets, which lately have been news-driven," says James C. But more on that later.Ī major focus of the updated ATP platform is streaming news from various sources. Those who trade 120 times or more over 12 months are eligible for Fidelity's back-testing tool, Wealth-Lab Pro. As you trade more, ATP tosses more tools your way, all usable within the app, including Dow Jones news services (an affiliate of Barron's), Level II quotes and interactive charting. Transactions can include options as well as stocks and exchange-traded funds. Commissions drop from as much as about $20 a trade to as little as $8 for active traders, and ATP itself is free to those who qualify.
