Saw a video interview of her a couple of months/years ago. She seems pretty knowledgeable.

I have been trading with DeCarley for a few months. A few problems with trades (short options) being rejected but excellent customer service to fix problems. Best customer service I have seen in 15 years trading at many firms.

Commissions are not the cheapest but not expensive. I would call them just right.

Margins are SPAN minimum.

My experiences mirror Ron's except I haven't had any issues with trades being rejected. GREAT customer service. I have no issues recommending them as futures & options broker. They do not do equities.

Carley ( @decarleytrading ) is great. I have had an account there for 2-3 months. Service is excellent when there are issues (there have been a few minor order issues with Gain and the Zaner 360 platform). Carley seems to answer e-mails day and night.

They also can provide a lot of analysis, etc. I don't use them for that, though. It may be valuable stuff I am missing.

Of course, for the extra service, you pay a bit more in commissions, compared to someone like OptionsExpress. But, since DeCarley uses SPAN minimum (and OptionsExpress requires more for some instruments), I can have a contract or two more with DeCarley, and this more than makes up for the commission difference.

Overall, highly recommend. High satisfied.

Kevin

Here is an example of Carley's customer service.

I emailed her a question on Friday at 9pm. It wasn't a question that needed answered right away. I expected to get an answer on Monday morning.

She answered my question within 10 minutes!

You won't get that good customer service anywhere else.

Just recently joined DeCarley and I have to say that service is indeed excellent. As an example I emailed her a question about S&P options and got reply within 5 minutes. If you are looking at option futures selling broker and would not mind some help along the way, I would strongly recommend giving her a call.
