All around broker

I am 18 and am looking for a broker (in the US) that i can use for all of my investing and trading needs. I was wondering what brokers people prefer and also if you can even trade currency's with brokers such as TD Ameritrade.

I want the option to trade stocks, futures, commodities, options and currency's. I was thinking TD Ameritrade would be the best because they offer Think or Swim but i was hoping other people had opinions on what i should be doing.

Also, if it would be best to get independent charting software with a different broker.


Thanks for any help

Interactive brokers is the best in my view. One platform and trade everything and low cost ! But they want at least 5k intial deposit I think.
