HI I would like some input on choosing a broker. I can't decide between tradeking, scottrade and IB. Here is why I like each of them:
Tradeking - 4.95 flat fee trades, nice learning centre (at the min I want to buy equities both UK and US but I want to learn options and they are meant to have a good application for this)
CON - there stock research facility is bad I hear and poor charting too
Scottrade - $7 trades, great research and back testing and market information
CON - no learning
IB - one interface to manage all finances, apparently cheap but I dont know the commision. Any one know? Lots of market info
CON - aparently bad customer service, dont know commission
I am hoping some feedback will help me decide. I also tride thinkorswim but the paper money platform is confusing to use. Its slightly more expensive aswell.
Any other suggestions will be welcomed!
Thanks guys
