Looks like I misread his ask - I saw 10+ years experience and looking for a trading platform. I did preface by saying options/more complex trades, as that is where IB excels.

As noted, if you're going to buy big cap stocks/index funds and hold them, it doesn't really matter where you buy them, the cost per trade will range from $0-$10, which doesn't make much difference. If you're saving a 1% MER by switching to index funds or buying quality companies, that will overwhelm the cost of commissions for sure.
