Firstrade Trading Platform Review
Early last week, I took a look at Scottrade trading platform because it’s the broker that I use the most for stock trading (not that I trade a lot). As you know, Scottrade isn’t my only stock broker. In fact, it is one of many brokerage accounts I own. Another *old* account I have is [...]
OptionsHouse Promotion Code for 100 Free Trades
OptionsHouse is one of the discount brokers that I have an account with.
I opened the account in June when I found that it charges only $2.95 per stock trade, much less than other brokers I use (Zecco offers free trade, but the requirement is rather high for small investors). However, it disappointed me when I [...]
Transfer Fund to Scottrade Brokerage Account Is Easy
The stock is down pretty badly so far today. For some investors, this is an opportunity to buy stocks at a better price, given that the market was down four out of the six trading sessions. Suppose that you see a stock that you have wanted to buy and today it finally reaches the price [...]
Scottrade Trading Platform Review
Sottrade is a online discount stock broker which offers investors, from big to small, a wide range of products and trading tools at a competitive price.
One of the online discount stock brokers I use very actively is Scottrade. When I first selected Scottrade as my broker 7 years, I didn’t not much about it other [...]
This Is Why I Trade with Scottrade
I write about Scottrade quite often here for a couple of reasons:
I have most of our investments with Scottrade, including regular brokerage account and IRA accounts;
I am happy with their customer service.
Usually customer service doesn’t play a big role when I select a bank or a broker (it wasn’t a factor when I decided to [...]
Trade Gold and Silver with Zecco
Online discount broker Zecco Trading keeps rolling out new service.
Early this year, Zecco introduced Zecco Forex Trading, a platform that allows Zecco customers to trade foreign exchanges. Now you can even buy gold and silver if you are interested in investing in precious metal, right from the Forex platform.
Gold has crossed the $1,000/ounce mark again [...]
Zecco Bonus Code for 20 Free Trades
Popular online discount broker Zecco Trading is running a promotion which offers 20 commission free stock trades, a $90 value, to all new brokerage customers who sign up by Sunday, September 13, 2009!
Zecco is one of the brokers which I have an account with and I have written about it quite frequently here (read my [...]
OptionsHouse Dropped $100 Cash Reserve Requirement for Making a Trade
I am not sure what role, if any, I had in this, but I was just informed by Shannon Paul, the Communications Manager of PEAK6 Online, the parent company of OptionsHouse, that the discount online broker has dropped the $100 cash reserve requirement (that’s different than account minimum, which is $1,000 to open an account) [...]
Broker Web-Based Trading Platform Comparison
I bought my first stock nearly 8 years ago with Scottrade, which is also my first stock broker, in 2002 and one that I have been actively using since then. Throughout these years, as more and more online discount brokers emerged, I have also got accounts with other brokerage firms in order to reduce trading [...]
trade MONSTER Offers Investors Great Trading Experience
trade MONSTER is another online discount broker that generates quite some interests recently.
I first noticed trade MONSTER when I compiled the list of discount brokers with the lowest commissions for online stock trading. Actually, if you look at the list, trade MONSTER isn’t really attractive from the point of view of costs. The broker charges [...]
