On 12 November, Schwab announced a Model Context Protocol (MCP) pilot for a group of clients using Claude. Those clients can authorise the connection to use account data for research, portfolio and position analysis, and alerts. Clients with thinkorswim-enabled accounts can prepare, place and manage trades through the connection with the customer involved. Schwab plans to expand access and support additional AI platforms.
The broker also extended weekday options trading on about 30 stocks, ETFs and indices on Cboe. The published US Eastern sessions run from 7:30 to 9:25 a.m. and 4:00 to 4:15 p.m. Post-market single-stock option trades are processed for the current trading day, which matters for auto-exercise and expiry.
The same release describes an order gadget in thinkorswim with leg-level options pricing, estimated costs and payoff figures. Schwab.com adds a redesigned bond page and extended-hours pricing in watchlists. Schwab Mobile adds options and crypto ticket defaults and can display selected thinkorswim orders. A separate natural-language assistant for the thinkorswim Learning Center is planned.
