What's a cheap and reliable site to make stock trades on...?


And how much does each trade cost?

Does the site you recommend have any other fees?

scottrade

7 dollar trades and very easy to do.

e trade, its really cheap

Id say Etrade is a pretty decent site for them. Not too expensive and good deals. That is if you have the expierence to recognize a good deal. But then again you may want to ask someone more professional than I.

I trade through an investment account set up with the same bank I have my chequing account with, so that I can transfer money easily back and forth, and it has the reliability of a bank. I just find it a lot safer than using an independant "trading only" website.

I pay $25 commission per trade, no monthly fee. If I had $100,000 in my account the fee would drop to $9.99.

For reference I use BMO Investorline and I am Canadian. All banks offer similar services, ie. TD Waterhouse.

Zecco.com trades are $4.50 for accounts under $2500 and over that amount trades are free.
