Title: Best Stock Broker via Internet ??
Post by: la-onda on June 05, 2006, 06:08:45 AM
Hi,
I am thinking to switch my Etrade Germany account (15$ flat per trade) to another broker.

Any recommendations from our board members? 8)

You might check out Sharebuilder. I don't know all the locations that can use them but it's a good trading site using interent. I used them before switching to Scottrade and only reason I switched is Scottrade has a office in town where I live and if I have any problems I'll be able to go directly to office.
Check it out and see what you think

I'm using Interactive brokers from Jule 2005 (I received recommendation from Ramsburg, metro some other experts): http://interactivebrokers.com/en/main.php

I have no experience with other Internet brokers, but I see some advantages in IB:

1. I  pay very small commission: USD 0.005 per share    Maximum value: 0.2% of trade value
2. I can use Stop Loss, Trailing stop and any other order types on OTCB stock (for the same price)

You can see my old topic:

If you have any questions - you are welcome  :)

PS: la-onda, thank you for you excellent posts  ;D
