Default Where do you guys

purchase your stocks? I go through sharebuilders and they won't let you buy certain stocks..for example, SWTS,SNAK.

I wanted to get both of those(suggested by TCG) but could not.

I have Ameritrade ... but I might switch to Scottrade, don't know yet. I actually just got an internship with Scottrade so once I start I'll see what I want to do.

Default re:

I have been complaining that Banc of America charges me too much in trading fees, but they just saved my butt!! They get the best prices for my orders possible and they often do better than my original limit price. Yesterday, I was so tired that I entered a sell for $30.56 for a stock that was selling at $36.56, and they got me the better price, whew!! That could have been a disaster. Well, I guess I won't be bitchin about them, anymore.

I think you can electronically wire money from bank accounts and stuff, but it needs to be a minimum of $100.

If you are talking about transferring stock, I'm sure anyone can do that.
