I am looking into online trading, but I can't choose which broker to go with. Can anyone give me advice? Is Datek or E-trade good?

Thanks,

Jae

 

I use TD Waterhouse. Nothing but good experiences with them over the past 5 years.

 

I use Wells Fargo because its free when you have enough in investments. They have been very accurate and timely in all the trades

 

I have Datek, Scottrade and ETrade accounts. I wouldn't recommend Scottrade because transactions time out and are known for errors. ETrade - when the trading day is busy - its difficult to get an SSL/https page up! ugh. Datek, I haven't used as a day trading broker, so I couldn't give you a good opinion on that.

But if you are looking to trade, or day trade - do what we did in high school - project buying and selling and selling short as well - on a pencil and paper basis for a few days. calculate fees (if applicable) and see how much you can make. a few practice rounds that way will help greatly.

 

I use e-trade. Nothing special about them though.

It's BETTER to do INSIDER trading, however! That's where the real money is. Americans, gotta love how gullible they are. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!
