get rid of tradeking...

[wallstreetsedge]

sometimes people would ask me about my recommendation of a discount broker... i would normally recommend discount brokers such as..

mbtrading.com - barebones
interactivebrokers.com - barebones
tradestation.com
thinkorswim.com
tradeking.com

i would like to take tradeking.com off of my list of recommended brokers. lately, i've been having a lot of issues with using them...

problems include:
- slow execution
- delays in providing order status info
- delays in canceling/changing orders
- rejecting large $ incoming wires
- delaying large $ outgoing wires without providing notice
- very illiquid with new $ deposited into account (if you deposit $ in any way, whether its check, ach, or direct deposit, they prevent you from withdrawing it in any way for a minimum of 10 business days)

just thought some of you would like to know 8O

Okay i red Zecco having worst ratings...Plus the other day i saw ad for in NYC subway, i don't trust anything i see in NYC Subway.... Including people !
After looking for a long time and reviewing i had to go with tradeking.com, because interactivebrokers.com ask you to send them a check than they approve you so it can take up to 10 days, thinkorswim.com is way to expensive per trade...i heard good reviews about it, but reviewer's say that E-trade and Ameritrade are the best and we know they are crap, so i just went with trade king in order to avoid pain in the ass, it's better than Russian corporate account i had before...
