Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Chicago, optionsXpress Holdings, Inc. established itself as a leading online broker for active traders, with a particular focus on providing a sophisticated platform, extensive educational resources, and competitive pricing for options and futures trading. The company went public in 2005 (NASDAQ: OXPS). In 2011, Charles Schwab Corporation acquired optionsXpress for approximately $1 billion. The integration process was completed over the subsequent years, with all optionsXpress client accounts and services being fully migrated to the Charles Schwab platform by 2018. The optionsXpress brand and its distinct platform have since been retired.
