I would like to start adding some stocks (for long-term holding) of companies I see a strong future in and am familiar with. Not planning on doing any frequent trading, more long-term holding.
So for those of you who trade occasionally, where do you have your stock accounts and what do you see costs-wise? Is there any that seem easier/better to deal with? I'd prefer to do most everything online. I currently have all of my retirement stuff at Vanguard (mainly because the broad range of low-cost mutual funds, and in particular their Target Retirement Funds). I also have an investor checking account at Schwab, mainly to gain access to their awesome international ATM/Debit card product (waived+refunded atm fees, mid-market exchange rate, etc). But I haven't traded stocks with either one... Quite a while ago I had a scottrade account to dabble in some penny stocks, but that's long gone and been gobbled by TD Ameritrade, which may or may not be a good option. -- *Forrest Christian* *CEO**, PacketFlux Technologies, Inc.* Tel: 406-449-3345 | Address: 3577 Countryside Road, Helena, MT 59602 [email protected] | http://www.packetflux.com <http://www.linkedin.com/in/fwchristian> <http://facebook.com/packetflux> <http://twitter.com/@packetflux>
