I'm a full-time daytrader, so I am very interested in your board. After reading your site I would say you and I have very similar trading styles. I tend to stick to the same 3 stocks and just play the swings as well.
I love the Scottrade Elite platform mainly for the Trade Ideas.
The main tools I use are The Total View, Velocity and Forces and the 5min/1day chart using the SAR, CCI and the MACD.
I also like to throw a few lottos in the mix to keep it interesting.
Just started dabbling in Options a few months back. On a standstill with them the last few weeks for I am looking to open an account either at Think or Swim or with the Scottrade Option platform. Played around with them using Sharebuilder, but must say Sharebuilder is the worse broker I have ever used. Wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
