Scottrade® is a well established discount brokerage with a history going back 30 years now. This fact may not be obvious because of the relatively recent advertising you may have noticed for Scottrade. In fact, the company was started in 1980 and started offering online trading in 1996.

Many of you are probably familiar with their advertising campaign which features the “E*TRADE Talking Babies” to help promote their services. E*TRADE is a publicly traded company under the symbol ETFC, and has a market capital of around $3 billion.

Questrade is quickly growing and receiving numerous accolades for their service, features and great pricing.







Zecco

Zecco® is a deep discount online brokerage that is offers FREE… yes, you read that correctly, free stock trades. They make this possible through interest earnings, and advertisements on their site. Other brokers do the same thing, but don’t give out free trades. Zecco will give you up to 10 trades a month, completely free.







TD Ameritrade

TD Ameritrade® is one of the brokerages you will often see on TV commercials. Their large size and advertising budget enable them to do this. The problem with this type of broker is that additional budget results in higher commissions.







SogoTrade

SogoTrade® is a deep discount online brokerage with a very low stock commission of $3 for stocks over $1/share. Options are also fairly cheap at $5 + 65 cents per contract. While the low commissions are attractive, you don’t get a whole lot in terms of features and available investment securities.
