tastytrade Network's Financial Media Now Streams Through TD Ameritrade's Trade Architect and thinkorswim Platforms


CHICAGO, June 26, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- tastytrade (tastytrade.com), the fastest-growing online financial network, and TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (NYSE:AMTD), today announced that the tastytrade network's programming will stream directly to TD Ameritrade clients through its trading platforms.

"At TD Ameritrade, we're committed to offering clients relevant and useful financial content that can help them identify new opportunities in the markets," said Steve Quirk, Senior Vice President of TD Ameritrade's Trader Group. "Free research and education has long been an integral part of our client offering, and adding tastytrade programming to our Trade Architect and thinkorswim platforms gives our clients yet another way to stay on top of current market trends."

tastytrade content is now available on TD Ameritrade's Trade Architect and thinkorswim platforms. A mobile version is expected to launch later this summer.

tastytrade launched one year ago and has expanded to seven hours of live, commercial-free financial programming every weekday, featuring shows with market analysis and trading strategies for novice and veteran traders.

"After one year of live broadcasting, we have received tremendous validation from a rapidly growing audience of investors hungry for a new kind of financial content," said Tom Sosnoff, CEO of tastytrade and co-host of "Get Tasted," on live every weekday at 7:00 AM, Central. "tastytrade breaks the mold of traditional market commentary and offers logical, probability-based investment strategies that we've traded with for years, and are now available to our audience."   

Core principals at tastytrade and well-known online trading pioneers include CEO Tom Sosnoff, President Kristi Ross, Executive Producer Tom Preston, and Chief Technology Officer Linwood Ma, who were instrumental in building thinkorswim, Inc. into an innovative brokerage that was sold to TD Ameritrade in 2009.
