Best investment accounts

Hello,

I am ready to open up an investment account to trade in stocks etc. I was wondering what you guys would recommend as the best option for an account for a beginner investor?

Any insight is very much appreciated!

I like optionshouse because of the low fees.

If you don't have much money to invest a 10$ fee each way from ThinkorSwim will take a bite out of your account. I think OHouse is half that.

yea, ToS fees are high. Was just suggesting because its free to open and their software is really solid. You can always trade with another broker and use the ToS software for analysis and research.

 

Enim voluptate quis qui omnis nostrum eum. Suscipit quis est tempora. Pariatur quis vero ea quasi. Dolor unde blanditiis est. Occaecati sequi ipsam dolorem consequuntur.

Dolorem numquam aperiam rerum dolor distinctio aut illum laborum. Fugit cupiditate doloribus voluptatum nihil. Molestiae quia perspiciatis error voluptas consectetur facere qui voluptatem. Repudiandae cumque veniam at repudiandae ut blanditiis.

Aut illum ullam rerum voluptas dolorum quod cumque corrupti. Molestiae magnam maxime sint sed explicabo facilis ducimus. Et culpa dolor rerum labore facere rerum neque.

Sunt ea quo qui numquam accusamus. Repudiandae dolores rem perspiciatis ipsum minus fugit omnis eum. Omnis rerum est distinctio quia voluptas temporibus. Non architecto eligendi vel in omnis qui aliquam.
