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

God Damn it why did you have to post this message ? I wanted to open an account with TradeKing today !!!

haha try zecco.com then... you get pretty much the same tools and stock trades are free

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...

I agree with you all your mentions,happen to my self I open account for 2 months 4 ugly things, 1. some stock can not be sold more than $5000 per transaction I have to trade twice for $7000 stock. 2. Some stock I got charge $24.95 for trade. 3.Market closed higher than my limit price my stock did not sold.
4.One day after I sent check for deposit I found out more problem I decide not to trade with them again I email them I fax them I got reply that they will not deposit my check but I stop the check anyway,8 days later they charge me $20 for returned check.I did a lot of trades with TD for 7 years want to save some money....TD is my best choice.
