Another broker thread..

Svenwulf · 05-21-2006, 11:51 PM

Seems like most folks on here use scottrade. Interactive brokers seem very bare bones (and cheap!) TDameritrade seems like the fluffy one with all the bells and whistles. How about Fidelity? Etrade? What are some hidden fees, etc one might expect? How much do folks pay for level 2? Do you pay for level 2? Which broker has the most hassel clearing funds? Anything people want to vent about would be great, just figuring it had been awhile!

I would be interested to hear people who use IB as well.
