im in the same shoes you are just became a adult and with school don't have time to do a whole lot of trades , you do need time to research tho, I am a moderator for a community site kinda like face book for stock holders and researchers, its a 100% free site, non push site (we wont tell you to buy a stock to get us a gain), has a face book style design and a stock chat, its StockGoodies.com hope to see you there, Goodies4monkeys sent you.
we talk about penny stocks and more expensive stocks as well
i go thru scottrade iv researched the others and this is best for the money, you need $500 instead of like $1000 for other and sometimes more $7 per trade (so 14 for buying and selling) no inactivity fees and no hidden fees, i really like it check it out and see for your self its your money, iv made money with pennys trades for the short term such as ROYE, and C for the dips its at 4.43 so im gonna buy in again
ok again join the site stockgoodies.com it will help a beginner i think, il be there to if you have a ?, if you choose scottrade heres a code for 3 commission free trades:VNQP7030 when signing up, hope this helps
also i heard about sogotrade.com, but in my opinion i think you get your moneys worth, i could be wrong tho Report Abuse
hi there !!
with etrade,scottrade..why don't you also try gnuTrade platform... its easy there. The play money feature helps to gain experience and then once confident you can invest with real money
I think sharebuilder is something like $5 a trade. Pretty cheap.
Scottrade, I have been with them for years.
