What US broker to choose?

Hi,

I would like to get suggestions on what US broker to choose. I intend to trade equity mainly and I want to be able to short. I may also trade currencies. I may be interested in international equity as well. I would like to find a broker with low fees. Would you be able to give me your top 3 brokers and why? Thanks!
