E*TRADE Status FAQ
Is E*TRADE down right now?
Check Downdetector and API Status Check for independent monitoring. If reports are spiking during market hours, E*TRADE is likely experiencing a trading platform outage.

Login failures can be caused by server issues, browser cache problems, or account-specific issues. Try clearing your cache, using a private window, or the mobile app.
Why are my E*TRADE orders not going through?
