Scottrade, very fast trades, extremely reliable, and the support is outstanding. Never realize how important it is until you really need it.

 

Many banks restrict where and when you can trade stocks... as in which brokers you can use etc. because they have to monitor everything. I had some friends who had to switch accounts and such when they found this out.

I don't trade actively (especially not now with this job...) but Scottrade is good for the low fees. I'm not sure if they have a deal where you can pay lower fees with dollar-cost averaging or any schemes like that but would be great if they did.

I've used E-Trade and Ameritrade before, to me there wasn't a huge difference but both have higher fees than Scottrade.

 

I myself will have to Axe the Ameritrade account when I go to work... not like I've done anything with it for several months. I don't want high blood pressure from watching 1.5% swings in the Dow every damn day.
