Options Trading July 2022 - Which is the best platform and rates at the moment for a beginner to start off on?

With a wide array of options trading platforms from TD Ameritrade, IBKR, Moomoo, Tigerbrokers to the latest WeBull, may I seek advice from the experts on which to start off for a beginner who wishes to utilise basic strategies like 'Wheel' 'Covered Calls' 'Rolling Cash Secured Puts' etc.

Thanks in advance!

A bit about my live trading history. Last year, my main strategy is bull put spread on SPX. Some time in the beginning of this year, I switched to Poor Man's Covered Call (PMCC) on a few Dow Jones components like MRK, KO and VZ.

I recommend to use TDA . Easy to use.
